HIV is a virus that damages the cells in your immune system and weakens your ability to fight everyday infections and disease, and Aids is the late stage of HIV infection that occurs when the body’s immune system is badly damaged because of the virus.@susannareid100 there is still a stigma around HIV, especially when Richard refers to it as aids Which clearly made Ian uncomfortable!’ one person tweeted.
