No, AIDS stands for acquired immunodeficiency syndrome, a disease that makes it difficult for the body to fight off Infectious Diseases. The human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)causes AIDS by infecting and damaging part of the body's defenses against infection, namely the white blood cells known as CD4 helper lymphocytes (pronounced: lim-fuh-sites).

How come if people with AIDS don't donate blood people who use donated blood sometimes get AIDS?
All blood donations are screened well before use, but even with the tests used there is still a slight (one in tens of millions) chance that an infected lot will get through. There is also the risk of getting HIV/AIDS from the transfusion and not the blood itself; recipients are just as likely to get the disease from other sources as the whole procedure.
Can you get AIDS if a man that has aids needed a piece of tape and you tore the piece of tape with your fingernails and gave it to him he touched the piece that you gave him?
Of course not! You handing him something is not going to swap bodily fluids. You cannot get AIDS from being in the same room with someone, or even touch the same thing. Unless he's bleeding into a one of your cuts, there is zero chance of getting AIDS.You can't get aids from touching, hugging, or anything like that.Here are the only ways you can get aids:1. Unsterolized (Un-Clean) Tatooing/Medical/Drug equpiment2. Exchange of bodily fluids, through sex and blood.3. Blood Transfusions (If your getting blood from the hospital, they clean and check every ounce of blood they have for any diseases)I'm not a doctor, but if I were you, common sense would have kept me from worrying about getting AIDS from handing an item to the man. Unless he was bleeding and the blood got on you, I wouldn't worry so much. But you could always go get tested.
