A) AIDS can be reversed by depleting the plasma virus load.
In the first month of a primary HIV infection, the number of CD4+ lymphocytes steadily
B)
decreases.
C) Plasma virus load would decrease during the primary infection if the CD8+ lymphocytes
were absent.
D) The asymptomatic phase is caused by a steady increase of virus load in the plasma.
AIDS develops when the population of CD8+ and CD4+ lymphocytes dramatically
E)
decrease as the plasma virus load increases.
Cells (x10% plasma)
Virus RNA load (copies/ml plasma)

Step 1

Acquired immunodeficiency virus (AIDS) is caused by the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), which enters by binding to the CD4 cells with its gp 120. It affects the immune system of the body. It is transmitted by sexual contact, sharing needles, transfusion of infected blood and blood products, etc. Antiretroviral therapy is used to manage the disease.
