13. Algemene FeiteGeneral Facts

15. VIGS – Verworwe Immuniteitsgebrek SindroomHIV – Human Immunodeficiency Virus AIDS – Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome

17. VIGS - die immuunsisteem is bykans totaal vernietig - CD4 telling is minder as 200 per m3 bloedHIV is the initial infection with few symptoms AIDS - the immune system is almost completely destroyed– CD4 count less than 200 per m3 blood

18. Waaruit bestaan bloed?What does blood consist of? Plasma Rooibloedselle Witbloedselle Plasma Red blood cells White blood cells

19. Bloed / Blood

21. Dra CO2 en afval weg van spiereCarries oxygen to muscles and organs Carries CO2 and waste away from tissue

24. Wanneer die immuunstelsel afgebreek is, kan die liggaam nie siektes beveg nie en iets soos ʼn gewone verkoue kan dodelik raakHIV attacks white blood cells and breaks the immune system down When the immune system is not working well they body can’t fight disease and something like a common cold can become deadly
