      Hi Kaicairns123,

      Seems like you are very much worried about all the virus infections 🙂 There are many symptoms associated with AIDS (but don’t think that those who have these symptoms are AIDS patients, it need proper scientific tests before making any conclusions)

      Up to six weeks after getting HIV, most people experience a short one- or two-week illness called a seroconversion illness. Symptoms are sore throat, fever and rash over the body.

      Seroconversion is a sign that the immune system is reacting to the presence of the virus in the body. It’s also the point at which the body produces antibodies to HIV. Once seroconversion has happened, an HIV test will detect antibodies and give a positive result.

      Seroconversion illness happens to most (but not all) people shortly after infection. It can be severe enough to put someone in hospital or so mild that it’s mistaken for something like flu – although a blocked or runny nose is not usually a symptom.
