Abstract
Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is a virus that attacks the immune system, making it difficult for the body to fight off infections and diseases. While modern antiretroviral therapy (ART) has made HIV a manageable condition for many people, it can still be a serious and potentially life-threatening disease. One way that HIV can be transmitted is through organ transplantation, and recent research has shown that HIV can infect recipients who have received kidney transplants with an undetectable infection.
