Le HIV continue à se répliquer pendant la phase asymptomatique. Bien qu'il soit maintenu à des niveaux bas, il détruit progressivement le système immunitaire. Les patients entrent alors dans la phase symptomatique précoce. Cette phase peut durer de quelques mois à plusieurs années et elle est caractérisée par une chute rapide des numérations des lymphocytes T-CD4 (500-200 cellules par mm3) et par des infections opportunistes qui ne menacent pas la vie du malade. 1, record 1, French, - num%C3%A9ration%20des%20lymphocytes%20T%2DCD4
