There is no cure for HIV, but there are treatments to enable most people with the virus to live a long and healthy life.  AIDS is the final stage of HIV infection, when your body can no longer fight life-threatening infections. With early diagnosis and effective treatment, most people with HIV will not go on to develop AIDS. For more information, see
