 AB    Advanced immune deficiency is defined as a CD4 cell count below
       200/microL. This phase is marked by considerable medical intervention
       requiring close coordination between general practitioner and
       specialist, with the goal of minimising the patient's time in hospital.
       The patient must be assisted with the psychological adjustments that
       lead to death with dignity. Managing HIV in all its manifestations will
       make a great difference to the quality of both life and death.
