HIV, zita rakazara rehutachiona hwehutachiona hwekushaya simba kwemuviri kwevanhu Hutachiona hunorwisa masero anobatsira muviri kurwisa hutachiona, zvichiita kuti munhu ave panjodzi yekubata zvimwe zvirwere. Hunopararira nekubata mamwe ma fluids emuviri wemunhu ane HIV. Sezvatinoziva tese, Hunonyanya kupararira panguva yebonde risina dziviriro (bonde risina kondomu kana mushonga weHIV wekudzivirira kana kurapa HIV), kana kuburikidza nekushandisa mishonga yekubatanidza jekiseni, nezvimwewo.

Kana ikasarapwa,HIVzvinogona kukonzera chirwere cheAIDS (acquired immunodeficiency syndrome), icho chiri chirwere chakakomba pakati pedu tese.

Muviri wemunhu haugone kubvisa HIV uye hapana mushonga unoshanda weHIV. Saka, kana wangova neHIV, uchava nayo kweupenyu hwako hwese.

Zvisinei, nerombo rakanaka, mushonga unoshanda weHIV (unonzi antiretroviral therapy kana ART) wavepo parizvino. Kana ukatorwa sezvakarairwa, mushonga weHIV unogona kuderedza huwandu hweHIV muropa (unonziwo viral load) kusvika padanho rakaderera zvikuru. Izvi zvinonzi viral suppression. Kana hutachiona hwemunhu hwakaderera zvekuti lab isingakwanise kuona, izvi zvinonzi kuva nehutachiona husingaonekwe. Vanhu vane HIV vanotora mushonga weHIV sezvakarairwa uye vanowana hutachiona husingaonekwe vanogona kurarama hupenyu hurefu uye hune hutano uye havazotapurire HIV kune vadikani vavo vasina HIV kuburikidza nebonde.

Pamusoro pezvo, kunewo nzira dzakasiyana-siyana dzinoshanda dzekudzivirira kutapurirana HIV kuburikidza nekushandisa pabonde kana kushandisa zvinodhaka, dzinosanganisira pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP), mishonga inotorwa nevanhu vari panjodzi yeHIV kudzivirira kutapurirana HIV kubva mukushandisa pabonde kana jekiseni remishonga, uye post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP), mishonga inotorwa mukati memaawa makumi manomwe nemaviri mushure mekusangana nehutachiona kudzivirira kutapurirana kwehutachiona.

Chii chinonzi AIDS?
AIDS idanho rekupedzisira rekubatwa neHIV rinoitika kana masoja emuviri akakuvara zvakanyanya nekuda kwehutachiona.

MuUS, vanhu vazhinji vane hutachiona hweHIV havabate AIDS. Chikonzero ndechekuti vanotora mishonga yeHIV sezvavakarairwa inomisa kufambira mberi kwechirwere ichi kuti izvi zvisaitike.

Munhu ane HIV anoonekwa seava neAIDS kana:

huwandu hwemasero eCD4 avo hunodzikira pasi pemasero mazana maviri pa cubic millimeter yeropa (masero mazana maviri/mm3). (Mumunhu ane masoja emuviri ane hutano, huwandu hweCD4 huri pakati pe500 ne1,600 masero/mm3.) Kana kuti vanowana hutachiona humwe kana kupfuura hunokanganisa hutano pasinei nehuwandu hweCD4 yavo.
Pasina mushonga weHIV, vanhu vane AIDS vanowanzo rarama kwemakore matatu chete. Kana munhu angobatwa nechirwere chine njodzi, hupenyu hwake hunotarisirwa pasina kurapwa hunoderera kusvika pagore rimwe chete. Mishonga yeHIV inogona kubatsira vanhu vari padanho iri rekubatwa neHIV, uye inogona kutoponesa upenyu. Asi vanhu vanotanga mishonga yeHIV nguva pfupi yadarika vanowana mabhenefiti akawanda. Ndosaka kuongororwa HIV kwakakosha kwatiri tese.

Ndingaziva Sei Kana Ndine HIV?
Nzira chete yekuziva kana une HIV ndeyekuongororwa. Kuongororwa kuri nyore uye kuri nyore. Unogona kukumbira chiremba wako kuti akuongororere HIV. Makiriniki mazhinji ekurapa, mapurogiramu ekushandisa zvinodhaka, nzvimbo dzehutano dzemunharaunda. Kana usingakwanise kuita zvese izvi, saka chipatara isarudzo yakanakawo kwauri.

Kuzviongorora HIV pachakoImwe nzira zvakare. Kuzviongorora kunobvumira vanhu kuti vaongorore HIV uye vaone mhedzisiro yavo vari kumba kwavo kana kune imwe nzvimbo yavo vega. Kambani yedu iri kugadzira kuzviongorora vega izvozvi. Kuzviongorora vega kumba uye kuzviongorora vega kumba kunotarisirwa kusangana nemi mese mugore rinouya. Ngativamirirei pamwe chete!
