Artwork of a man and woman with the AIDS virus
AIDS. Artwork of the silhouettes of a man and a woman with the AIDS virus. AIDS (acquired immune deficiency syndrome) is a disease caused by the Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV), at centre. The virus has a glycoprotein outer layer (white) which allows it to bind to white blood cells, and an icosahedral protein coat (pink) which contains its genetic material. HIV is spread by infected bodily fluids coming into contact with the blood. This is usually by sexual intercourse, sharing hypodermic needles, or blood transfusions. AIDS destroys white blood cells, leading to a weakened immune system, and death by an opportunistic infection

EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful artwork captures the essence of the AIDS virus, showcasing the silhouettes of a man and woman intertwined with its intricate structure. AIDS, short for acquired immune deficiency syndrome, is caused by the Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV), depicted at the center of this print. The virus's outer layer, represented in white, enables it to bind to white blood cells crucial for our immune system's defense. Encased within a pink icosahedral protein coat lies its genetic material. The artwork serves as a reminder that HIV is primarily transmitted through infected bodily fluids coming into contact with blood. Sexual intercourse, sharing hypodermic needles, or receiving contaminated blood transfusions are common routes for transmission. Once inside the body, HIV attacks and destroys white blood cells leading to a weakened immune system. Through this representation of disease and condition merged with artistry, we are confronted with the devastating impact of AIDS on individuals and communities worldwide. It underscores the urgent need for medical advancements in treating and preventing this life-threatening syndrome. Science Photo Library has expertly captured both scientific accuracy and artistic expression in this image—an evocative portrayal that prompts us to reflect on health care challenges surrounding HIV/AIDS while honoring those affected by it.
