AIDS virus infection
HIV/AIDS is a pandemic disease that affects 88 million individuals worldwide. A variety of medical conditions, including hemolytic uremic syndrome, are diagnosed in HIV-positive individuals. This condition is caused by a bacterial infection that causes excessive clotting and hemorrhaging of the blood. Typically, E. coli infections cause diarrhea in the United States.
Hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) is a well-known AIDS-related complication. Within 30 days of onset, it is frequently associated with severe inflammation and multiorgan failure.
