¿What happens after a person contracts HIV?

After being infected with HIV, the body is working hard to attack the virus. When the body fights the virus can not make as many copies of itself. Although the person still has HIV, begin again to look good and feel good. The results of routine blood tests are normal.
However, during this time, the virus is still attacking the lymph nodes. Lymph nodes are the centers of the body's immune system. The virus may also attack and damage brain tissue slowly.
For 10 to 15 years, HIV kills so many CD4 cells that the body can not fight infections. When the CD4 count is 200 or less per ml, the person has AIDS (a normal count is 600 to 1000). Once the person has AIDS, you can easily get many serious infections.
