The stages of HIV infection, latency and AIDS. Primaryinfection lasts for several weeks and may include symptoms such as fever, sore throat, muscle pain and mouth and sores.

Recently, HPV has been linked with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease. More than 30 to 40 types of HPV are typicallytransmitted through sexual contact. Most HPV infections in young females are temporary and have little long-term significance. Seventy percent of infections are gone in 1 year and ninety percent in 2years. However, when the infection persists in 5% to 10% of infected women, there is high risk of developing precancerous lesions of the cervix, which can progress to invasive cervical cancer. Thisprocess usually takes 15–20 years, providing many opportunities for detection and treatment of the pre-cancerous lesion. Progression to invasive cancer can be almost always prevented when standard...
