Question: 1 / 400

What does HIV cause?

Common cold

AIDS

HIV stands for Human Immunodeficiency Virus and is a virus that attacks and weakens the immune system. Over time, if left untreated, HIV can progress to AIDS (Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome) which is the final stage of the infection. Option A is incorrect because the common cold is caused by different viruses and does not lead to long-term health effects like HIV. Option C is also incorrect because while HIV can increase the risk for certain types of cancer such as Kaposi's sarcoma and lymphoma, it is not the direct cause of cancer. Similarly, Option D is not the correct answer as HIV is not responsible for causing hepatitis, which is inflammation of the liver.
