What Is the HIV Incubation Period?

The AIDS incubation period refers to the time from the beginning of HIV infection to the onset of AIDS symptoms and signs. It takes 0.5 to 20 years for humans to become infected with AIDS after an average of 7 to 10 years. The length of its incubation period is related to the number, type, route of infection, immune status, nutritional conditions, and living habits of the virus. Some people who do not have the disease can be hidden for a long time or even for life, becoming AIDS carriers. Latent HIV infected people contain HIV in their blood, semen, vaginal secretions, breast milk, and organs and are contagious.
