Infections that occur or are more severe in individuals with a weakened immune system as compared to people with a healthy immune system are called opportunistic infections. HIV (human immunodeficiency virus) infection weakens the immune system, thus making it hard for the body to fight off other infections. The common opportunistic infections seen with HIV are pneumonia, Salmonella infection, candidiasis, toxoplasmosis, invasive cervical cancer, cytomegalovirus infection, encephalopathy, herpes infection, and tuberculosis. People who have HIV are given medicines to prevent these infections from affecting them.
