What is the primary way AIDS is spread?

Answer 1

Unprotected sex accounts for the majority of new HIV infections. HIV is transmitted through contact with blood, semen, vaginal fluid or breast milk. While coming in contact with an HIV+ person's blood carries the highest risk for infection, it is far more likely for someone to exposed during sexual intercourse to semen or vaginal fluid.

Answer 2

Drug use- sharing needles and pipes that get hot enough to cause blistering causes HIV to spread quickly

Sexual intercourse- Anal or Vaginal intercourse, as well as sharing sex toys, also helps in spreading the virus.

It is also possible to an infected pregnant woman to give the virus to her baby, but this is not the most common way it is spread. Also, some babies get a false positive, because some test positive for antibodies, and never are found to have the virus at all.

Answer 3

The most common way HIV is spread is by homosexuals having anal sex.

The rectum is not really "designed" for this action and is at high risk of developing small cracks or rifts in the tissue/skin.

As soon as there is an opening into the path of blood, you are at very high risk of contracting the disease from a partner.

Answer 4

The most common way that HIV is transmitted is by what are called body fluids. Only certain body fluids—blood, semen (cum), pre-seminal fluid (pre-cum), rectal fluids, vaginal fluids,
and breast milk—from a person who has HIV can transmit HIV. These fluids must come in contact with a mucous membrane or damaged tissue or be directly injected into the bloodstream (from a needle or syringe) for transmission to occur. Mucous membranes are found inside the rectum, vagina, penis, and mouth.
