Original Note:
The person in this situation was infected with HIV, not AIDS. It’s possible to contract HIV and not develop AIDS. AIDS is a late stage of HIV. In the U.S., most people with HIV do not develop AIDS because taking HIV medicine as prescribed stops the progression of the disease. https://www.hiv.gov/hiv-basics/overview/about-hiv-and-aids/what-are-hiv-and-aids/
