We use stochastic models to estimate the waiting time distributions for progressive stages of HIV infection and to estimate stage-specific infection transmission probabilities between exposed and infected persons. We partition the infection period into four progressive stages: 1. infected but antibody negative; 2.

A time-dependent Markov model is fitted to data on 45 persons with known time of HIV exposure to estimate the waiting time in stage 1, i.e., the pre-HIV-antibody period. The mean pre-HIV-antibody period is estimated to be 2.6 ± 0.2 months.

The HIV Life Cycle. HIV medicines in seven drug classes stop ( X ) HIV at different stages in the HIV life cycle. Binding (also called Attachment): HIV binds (attaches itself) to receptors on the surface of a CD4 cell. Drugs in this/these classes stop this process.
These signs and symptoms of acute HIV infection can begin a few days after you are exposed to HIV and usually last for about 14 days. They could last for just a few days, or they could last for several months. You might not realize your illness is acute HIV infection.
