AnswerAids is transfered when people have sex, using a condom greatly reduces the chances of getting aids. Animals cannot get aids and can't transfer it. Aids comes from blood, semen and other bodily fluids. You can't get aids from saliva, so kissing, hugging, handshakes, and just about everything else will not give you aids. If someone has aids, don't worry about it, as long as you don't have sex with them you'll be fine.

Edit:

Aids can also be transfered by blood. If someone with aids has an open cut, you can only get it if you are to share blood or eat the blood by maybe accedetly mixing it with food but the aids virus can only live for five minutes outside of the body. If you give birth to a child while not having aids, and you some how you obtian it in your blood stream and breast feed the child, it will get aids even though it might have not had aids after birth.

Aids is a passed several ways. it is passed by drug users through shared users. It is passed from a male to a female through sexual intercourse. It is passed from a female to an uncircumcised male through sexual intercourse. Which is why New York City is making circumcision available to all males. If males do not have it, they can not give it to females. it is passed through anal intercourse. Which is the way gay men usually pass it to each other. Thus, it is important that condoms be used. It is passed in any way that blood from one person can get into the blood stream of another person. A number of health care people have it. Some cops have it because they got cut on bloody broken glass pulling accident victims from wrecks.

AIDS is not contagious. AIDS is a medical condition that is diagnosed by a medical professional. AIDS is caused by a virus known as HIV. HIV is transmitted through direct fluid-to-fluid contact with human blood, semen, vaginal fluid or breast milk.

AIDS, it self, cannot be transimitted. HIV, the first step of AIDS, can be sexually transmitted. Only through BLOOD! No other bodily fluid contains T cells. However another bodily fluid can be contaminated with blood. For example, if your lip is bleeding and you kiss someone, the saliva mixes with the blood. This can cause HIV to be transmitted.

However HIV is one of the weakest cells because only moments after it reaches air it dies. Dry blood does not contain live T Cells! You can't get HIV from dry blood.
