Abstract

Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is a retrovirus type virus that infects cells of the human immune system (especially CD4 positive T-cells and major components of the cellular immune system) and interferes with their function. This viral infection results in a continuous decline in the immune system, which will result in immune deficiency. People who are immune deficient/immunodeficiency become more susceptible to various types of infections. A 23 year male, a cafe employee, was admitted to hospital with complaints of weakness since 2 weeks before. He has productive cough for 3 weeks.  He had decrease of food appetite, nauseas and vomiting. He had weight loss about 10 kg in the last 4 months.
