    HIV won’t kill you. It weakens your immune system so other diseases kill you.

      “I didn’t kill you. I put an ax in your ribcage so that the bloodloss would kill you”

      /s, but only kinda. Whether HIV kills directly or indirectly, at the end of the day the host is still dead and poor HIV has nowhere to live 🥺

      No but it does mutate at a lighting rate. That’s why we can cure it. Something about protein strands constantly evolving.
