What is HIV?

HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus) is a virus that is spread through bodily fluids that affects and kills specific immune system cells, called T cells or CD4 cells. HIV can be spread by unprotected vaginal, anal, or oral sex with someone who is living with HIV, by blood to blood contact, and through mother to child transmission (childbirth or breastfeeding). HIV replicates inside of the body and cannot live outside of the human body.
