HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus) is a virus that attacks the immune system, weakening the body’s ability to fight infections. For those in need, HIV testing in Bangkok is accessible and crucial. If untreated, it can lead to AIDs (Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome). However, modern medicine allows people to live healthy lives with antiretroviral therapy (ART).
HOW IS HIV TRANSMITTED?
HIV is mainly transmitted through:
- Unprotected sex (vaginal, anal, or oral) with an infected person
- Sharing needles or syringes
- Mother-to-child transmission during pregnancy, birth, or breastfeeding
- Blood transfusions (rare due to strict screening in Thailand)
HIV is not spread through casual contact, sharing food, insect bites, or touching someone who has HIV.
HIV SYMPTOMS
Many people don’t experience symptoms right away. Early signs may include:
- Fever and chills
- Night sweats
- Swollen lymph nodes
- Rash
- Sore throat
- Fatigue
- Muscle and join pain
If you noticed these symptoms after possible exposure, get tested as soon as possible.
