Term1/23

How is AIDS transmitted

Definition1/23

HIV is transmitted via blood, semen, vaginal secretions, and breast milk. The most common way it is transferred is via unprotected sex.
AIDS can not transmit through air. It needs some type of contact through

blood ,serum or saliva etc from person to person. It can be transmitted through dried blood in syringes etc. it can not be transmitted through skin by skin contact or by sitting on a toilet seat where someone with AIDS sat. Associating AIDS with sex alone is wrong. If some one has sex with a woman infected with AIDS does not necessarily mean he would get AIDS, there is however a very high chance of contacting AIDS in such a case. It's easier for a woman to contract HIV through sexual intercourse than it is for a man due to ejaculation. A woman can transmit it to her unborn child but with proper medication the risk is reduced to 5%.
