What are diseases that destroy CD4 counts identified as?

  1. Immunocompromised states

  2. Primary prophylaxis

  3. Opportunistic infections

  4. CMV retinitis

The correct answer is: Immunocompromised states

Immunocompromised states are diseases that weaken or damage the immune system, leading to low CD4 cell counts. Primary prophylaxis is a preventive treatment for specific diseases. Opportunistic infections are infections that occur in people with weakened immune systems. CMV retinitis is a specific opportunistic infection that affects the eyes, but it is not a general term for diseases that destroy CD4 counts.
