It later came HIV with signs like,dehydration,fever,headache,swelling of joints,emaciation and headache.This pandemic sweeps old and young ,it is highly transmitted through having unprotected sex with an infected person,sharing needles with infected person,blood transfusion with infected blood,deep kissing with open sores on the mouth and other risky ways.
