The inherent naturally occurring flaws in natural rubber (latex) that makes up the condom are up to 5 microns inches in size. The average sperm is about 50 microns in diameter, and the average AIDS virus is about 0.1 micron in size. An AIDS virus can pass through a latex flaw.

There is no absolute guarantee that one will not get sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) and HIV even when condom is used.

Most experts believe that the risk of getting HIV/AIDS and other sexually transmitted diseases can be greatly reduced if a condom is used consistently and correctly.

In other words, sex with condoms isn't totally "safe sex," but it is "less risky" sex.

The most reliable ways to avoid transmission of STDs are to abstain from sexual activity, or to be in a long-term mutually monogamous relationship with an uninfected partner.

Promoting safe sex practices and preventing the spread of sexually transmitted infections can be achieved by encouraging the consistent and correct use of condoms during sexual activity.
