Human Immunodeficiency
Virus (HIV)• Acquired Immunodeficiency
Syndrome (AIDS) is the disease caused by HIV
• Persons who are HIV positive may be symptom free for many years
• There is no vaccine approved for HIV
![Page 4: CCS Bloodborne Pathogen Policy, section 1016.0305](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062323/5681591d550346895dc64550/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
What is HIV• A particular cell in the white blood
line, called T-helper cell or T-lymphocyte is attached. These cells are activated when germs attack the body to defend it. HIV slowly destroys the T-cells and the body’s ability to fight disease weakens.
![Page 5: CCS Bloodborne Pathogen Policy, section 1016.0305](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062323/5681591d550346895dc64550/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Hepatitis B Virus (HBV)• HBV infects the liver. The virus
turns the liver’s normal cells into fatty, non-functioning cells (cirrhosis). Persons with Hepatitis B may develop liver cancer, or they may become chronic carries. There is a vaccine to prevent HBV.
