HIV in full is Human Immunodeficiency Virus. It is a virus that has no cure. It is usually passed between people by unprotected sex. HIV leads to AIDS which reduces the body's natural defences against illness. To protect from HIV, abstain or use condoms EVERY TIME you have sex. Its important to have HIV tests because if you have it, treatment helps keep you healthy.
