Solution

The correct option is A Antibody titer is low
Most people infected with HIV develop specific antibodies (i.e., seroconvert) within three to twelve weeks of the initial infection. Antibody titers are generally lower in sera from patients with the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) and in sera from men whose condition subsequently progressed to AIDS than in sera from men who had not progressed to AIDS.
Therefore, the correct answer is option A.
