Abstract

The paper concentrates information on the cell biology of the immunological crisis following the HIV infection, and on key aspects of the complex molecular biology of propagation of the virus in the organism, which explain why AIDS has no medical solution for now and in the foreseeable future. The enormity of the human tragedy is discussed in molecular terms all in effort to reiterate the importance of prevention programmes, education and counseling as the only effective methods of curbing the spread of the disease.
