Treatment of infectious diseases
The type of treatment depends on the microorganism that caused the infection.
If micro-organisms cause a disease, anti-toxin therapy usually elimnate the microbes and
ends the disease.
Viral contamination usally don’t require hospitalization and is treated with resting,. People
often benefit from antiviral medications such as oseltamivir phosphate
Antifungal medications, such as fluconazole, and antiparasitic medications, such as
mebendazole, are used to treat infectious disease and parasitic infections. Treatment
method is different for different types of infectious diseases
HIV
,HIV (human immunodeficiency virus) is an infection that harms the while blood cells and
weaken the immune system which make ir incapable of fighting pathogens and sickness
That without the disease the body can get rid of by itself.
To know the treatment process of HIV we first need to look into how the HIV virus attack the
cells in our body
Binding & Fusion
These are the following stages in order for HIV to enter a human cell.
1- The HIV surface protein gp120's interaction with the CD4 receptor.
2- Gp120 undergoes a conformational shift that improves its affinity for a co-receptor while
also exposing gp41.
3- The interaction of gp120 with either CCR5 or CXCR4 as a co-receptor.
4- The penetration of the cell membrane by gp41, which resembles the HIV and T cell
membranes and promotes their union

Treatment
Currently there's no cure for HIV, however there are medicines which make possible for the
vast majority of the patients with the virus to live a long healthy life. If left untreated
HIV will attack and cause harm To the patient immune system. Which will put the patient at
higher danger of developing AIDS , and will put the patient at increased higher risk for
transmitting HIV to other people
If you have an undetectable viral load, there is virtually minimal risk of transmitting HIV to an
HIV-negative partner through sex.
In addition, having an undetectable viral load may assist prevent transmission from infusion
medication use. We don't know whether having an unnoticeable viral burden prevents
transmission through sharing needles and needles.
The presence of an undetectable viral burden also prevents transmission from mother to
child. If an HIV-positive mother takes her HIV medication as directed throughout her
pregnancy, employment, and transportation, and gives her kid HIV medicine for 4 to a month
and a half after birth,the danger of communicating HIV to her infant can be 1% or less.
Having an undetectable viral load reduces the risk of transmitting HIV to a child through
nursing, but it does not eliminate the risk. In the United States, it is being proposed that HIV-
positive mothers not breastfeed their children. In addition, HIV medications may have
different effects in women than in men.
Treatment is determined by the stage of the virus and the individual circumstances of each
patient. Doctors employ a variety of tests and diagnoses to find the best treatment option.
