Question: What are the short / long term effects of AIDS on a baby!?
Answers:
A baby born with HIV infection most likely will appear healthy!. But sometimes, within 2 to 3 months after birth, an infected baby may begin to appear sick, with poor weight gain, repeated fungal mouth infections (thrush), enlarged lymph nodes, enlarged liver or spleen, neurological problems, and multiple bacterial infections, including pneumonia!.

Long term: death, just like anyone else with AIDS!

It is unfortunate!.!.!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
other than having to take anti viral meds for the rest of his/her life - other than the fact the child will die an early, very painful death - I would say nothing!Www@Answer-Health@Com
