Luna Terry · Answer 1

False

Explanation:

HIV or human immune virus is a virus which gets transmitted in the humans mainly through sexual intercourse and it affects the humans by weakening the immune response.

Once a person's immunity gets weakened then the human is vulnerable to other microbial disease and hence disease becomes fatal. Such condition in human is known as acquired immunodeficiency syndrome.

The cases of HIV AIDS is increasing every year as the treatment available to this syndrome is not effective and the person dies after some time.

Thus, False is the correct answer.
