This final project studies mathematical model for population growth of HIV in the human body. Using this model and specific parameters chosen, we can show that HIV which infect T cells decreases the number of T cells in the blood until a certain value which is about 200 cells/mm3.<p> <br /> <br /> <br /> In reality, as time goes by, a person who has been infected with HIV is likely to become ill more and more often until, usually several years after infection, they become ill with one of a number of particularly severe illnesses. It is at this point that they are said to have AIDS, when the number of immune system cells left in their body drops below a certain value.<p> <br /> <br /> <br /> This final project also discusses mathematical model for an HIV infection with mutations. From the model we get a number Ndiv. This represent the number of mutations that can be accomodated before the immune system collapses. The simulation of this model confirm this.
