What is HIV?
HIV test is conducted to check whether someone has gotten infected with the virus. It is usually done when they are showing the symptoms associated with the disease.
Getting tested for HIV at the right time can help in preventing its spread and also in halting it from developing into its advanced stages via a proper treatment.
Human immunodeficiency virus is of two types: HIV-1 and HIV-2.

It is important to note that while HIV can spread from one person to another, acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS), which is the last stage of HIV, cannot be passed to others. Currently, no effective treatment is available for completely getting rid of HIV from the body. However, certain methods and treatment plans can help HIV-positive people to live a normal and healthy life and in reducing their chances of developing AIDS.
