Explanation:
Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia - a parasitic infection of the lungs that is common in HIV infected persons, usually striking those with T-4 cell counts well below 200 (and/or T-4 cell percentages below 15-20 %).
The parasite that causes this disease, Pneumocystis carinii, is a single-celled protozoan organism which is common in the environment and is believed to naturally infect a large segment of the adult world population.
