Weegy: To understand what HIV is, let?s break it down: H ? Human ? This particular virus can only infect human beings. I ? Immunodeficiency ? HIV weakens your immune system by destroying important cells that fight disease and infection. [ [ A "deficient" immune system can't protect you. V ? Virus ? A virus can only reproduce itself by taking over a cell in the body of its host. Human Immunodeficiency Virus is a lot like other viruses, including those that cause the "flu" or the common cold. But there is an important difference ? over time, your immune system can clear most viruses out of your body. That isn't the case with HIV ? the human immune system can't seem to get rid of it. Scientists are still trying to figure out why. We know that HIV can hide for long periods of time in the cells of your body and that it attacks a key part of your immune system ? your T-cells or CD4 cells. Your body has to have these cells to fight infections and disease, but HIV invades them, uses them to make more copies of itself, and then destroys them. Over time, HIV can destroy so many of your CD4 cells that your body can't fight infections and diseases anymore. When that happens, HIV infection can lead to AIDS. ] ] (More)

Weegy: he regulations which relate to cleanliness, [ hygiene and infection control require service providers to: have appropriate procedures for the control of infection and of clinical waste Ensure premises are kept in a good state of repair externally and internally and are fit for the provision of care provide facilities and equipment to address the needs of the service users and keep a record of maintenance of such items ensure staff receive training appropriate to the work they are to perform and provide suitable assistance to staff keep records of incidents detrimental to the health or welfare of the service user. This would include notifying the Care Commission of outbreaks of any infectious diseases which are deemed sufficiently serious by a doctor attending people in the care home. Services which have requirements noted on inspection will be asked to submit an action plan showing how these requirements will be met. They can also be subject to formal enforcement action which can vary or impose new conditions on their registration. Where there is continued failure to meet the terms of the Act, regulations or conditions of registration, the Care Commission may serve an improvement notice which will set out clearly the improvements required and the timescales within which they must be made. Where services do not satisfy the improvement notice the Care Commission may proceed to cancel the registration of the service. To date, infection control has never been the single reason for any enforcement action in care homes for older people. It is usually part of an enforcement action, consisting of many other issues such as staffing and management issues and poor, or lack of, facilities and equipment. Where infection control contributed to reasons for enforcement action, the same issues as stated previously for requirements were most common. ] (More)
