The symptoms many: There are many symptoms of aids and this depends upon the degree of infection- the level of cd4+ t-cells the cells that control the immune response and the "viral load" the amount of active virus in the body. Remember that the trensmission of the HIV virus is by bllod or sexual activity and not simply being "close". If you are concerned, the best procedure is an HIV test.
