You must have heard about AIDS which can pass on to a normal person from an infected person by sharing the syringes, to an infant from the infected mother through her milk and through sexual contact with person infected with

Bacteria
HIV
Fungus
All of above

Dear student,
Please find below the answer:

The correct option is (2).

AIDS or Acquired Immuno Deficiency Syndrome is a viral disease, caused by the Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV). After the HIV virus gets into the body, it kills or damages cells of the body's immune system like WBCs. The virus progressively destroys the body's ability to fight infections and certain cancers. The immune system becomes so weak that the body is not able to fight minute infections also. HIV-positive individuals are at serious risk of death as a result of their weakened immune systems.

Hope this clears your doubt.
Regards.
