Because bleach kills. And it will kill you, but not the AIDS virus. The human body is not capable of handling the chlorine.
AIDS/HIV has no cure!!!!!!!!!!!
Even an oxygen molecule introduced into a cell would kill it. And oxygen is a vital component to human beings' cellular processes. So it goes without saying much - that introducing something like chlorine into your blood stream is not a very good idea.
Chlorine in high enough concentrations can kill most living organisms.

∙ 13y agoWhoa, I'm not sure about that one. Bleach can damage the skin terribly and your insides, I totally wouldn't recommend drinking it, rubbing it on your skin or certainly not your private parts, go to a doctor or someone that knows about sexually transmitted diseases and seek information from them. And honestly, bleach could&would harm your insides. If you have aids, you may need to seek help from a doctor and get medicine. The medicine may not help completely get rid of it, but it would help better than the BLEACH would(:

No, only chlorine bleach (if you're lucky) can do that magic trick! Non-chlorine bleach (hydrogen peroxide and citric acid) is good at removing organic stains like grass or blood stains.
