AIDS (acquired immunodeficiency syndrome) is caused by HIV (human immunodeficiency virus). HIV is transmitted usually through unprotected sex with someone who is already infected‚ but it can also be transmitted through infected blood. The immune system is greatly affected by the disease. Once it enters the body‚ the virus recognizes a protein on helper T-cells‚ called CD4 (Cluster of Differentiation Antigen No. 4)‚ and it attaches onto that receptor to take over the CD4 cell. The result is a virus

In 1962‚ the criteria for the historical analysis of scientific developments was established; scientific development is not completely gradual and consecutive‚ but instead characterized by periods of steady progress that are interrupted by scientific revolutions of thought and changes in what was held to be fundamentally true (Kuhn). These significant changes are caused by a crisis that lead to solutions for pressing current problems; in this way the aids crisis acted as a catalyst‚ for it gave the

Simply‚ to inform us how these viruses affect our immune system. Human Immunodeficiency Virus or HIV is a lentivirus that causes required immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS)‚ a conditions in humans in which progressive failure of the immune system allows life-threatening opportunistic infections and cancers.
