Can HIV virus be destroyed by mosquitoes?
I think there must be some relations between mosquitoes and HIV virus because this virus cannot survive in the body of mosquitoes.There may be something that destroyed the virus in the mosquito's body.I think we should do research on the internal and external structure of the mosquito and its physiology.
No. AIDS is a diagnosis given to people who are HIV+. AIDS is not a disease or infection, rather a condition that results after a person is infected with HIV.
The CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) has linked HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus) to a similar infection among monkeys, SIV (Simian Immunodeficiency Virus.)
The virus was most likely able to infect humans after they came in contact with raw blood/meat from infected simians because of hunting and eating practices.
Why AIDS is not transmitted through mosquitoes?
Mosquitoes are immune from contracting HIV, it is a disease only humans can catch. When a mosquito bites a person they inject their own saliva (which most people are allergic to - causing an itchy mosquito bite) into their prey's bloodline. But their saliva does not carry HIV.

Another Answer
No. AIDS is not spread by mosquitoes. In Africa where many people have AIDS and many people are bitten by mosquitoes, a gap exists between 5 year olds and 15 year olds. That group does not get AIDS. That group does get malaria. That group is generally sexually inactive.
On the other hand, it would be possible to end AIDS transmission in a few years: circumcise all males, put in a needle swap, have gay men use condoms, use the newly developed inexpensive test to screen at risk population for AIDS, and make drugs available for those with AIDS.
No. FIV and HIV are truly like apples and oranges. While both are fruits, they can only grow on a specific tree.
I had an FIV positive cat for 6 years until his immune system could no longer keep up. There is no danger of infection to you; however it is imperative that you keep the cat isolated from other cats at all times, which usually means keeping them indoors. He/she will be highly susceptable to infection, and will require extra cleaning care. Otherwise they are just as wonderful and safe to keep as any other cat.
Can a mosquito transmit the aids virus?
That is one of the popular question! Mosquitoes do not transmit the HIV or AIDS virus. The virus gets inactivated in very short time in the body of the mosquito. Secondly the blood sucked by the mosquito goes in the stomach of the mosquito and it does not vomit the same in the body of next victim.
How do you know you have aids?
Only way to find out for certain is to undergo two blood tests, testing for the virus and concentration of certain white blood cells. The same test has to be done six months apart, as the first testing period may fall under the incubation period, where the HIV virus cannot be detected.
Can you get aids from a hedgehog?
No, probably not. But if you already have AIDS, some of the infections transmitted by hedgehogs can further weaken your immune system. And even if you are healthy, owning an exotic pet can have a number of risks. You can get numerous diseases from these animals, and some of the diseases can be very serious in humans. Hedgehogs can transmit both bacterial and microbial infections. They are especially known for giving humans Salmonella, as well as giving them some fungal and viral diseases.
Is it possible for a dog to get HIV?
It is not known whether they may get AIDS, but if so, it is very unlikely. AIDS is a human immunodeficiency virus, which means HIV, which I bet you know. There is, however, a feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV) which is a totally different disease.
No...HIV can only be transmitted through sexual activities or the use of dirty needles.
Can wheat grass cure HIV positive patients?

Can you get HIV from a hamster bite?
A bite from a dwarf hamster isn't any worse than getting a paper cut. You should use a disinfectant just in case. You probably won't get a infection, but it is possible.
How do you forget about someone?
There is no easy way to forget about someone. The best thing that you can do is, find someone new, find a new hobby, or just find something else that you like to do that will take your mind of the person.
How can you tell if you are HIV negative?
To be sure, test your blood at a clinic. It's possible that a blood test results in a false positive, so you might consider retesting your blood. A blood test usually takes 3 days to perform, so just try to remain calm and keep your mind off of it until you get your results.
Clarification note: Any positive result from an initial HIV test should be routinely confirmed with a second type of test that is more sensitive to HIV. This confirmatory test should usually be run by the same laboratory or testing centre where you had you first positive result. You should not do this yourself by just going for a second HIV test - the type of tests are different.

fornication is intercourse outside the covenant of marriage. It is sin. Read if you would like the book of 1 corinthians chapter 6 all of it and chapter 7 too. God is very seriuos about this because it falls in the heading of adultery and that's in deuteronomy chapter 5:18 in the ten commandments, Which many people say it doesn't apply but in the new testament in Matthew 5:28 says that if any one looks! upon a woman to lust after her he has committed adultery with her in his heart. It would be safe to say that any touching or kissing would fall into this category. unless this person is your wife or husband, man and woman. Because remember kissing is going to arouse you and your mind is going to go where it shoudn't. basically you would have sinful thoughts against God with that person your touching or kissing. Remember the Apostle Paul says in the book of 1 corinthians 7:1-2. It is good for a man not to touch a woman, verse 2 nevertheless, to avoid fornication, let every man have his own wife and let every woman have her own husband. And in verse 9 says it says if you cannot contain yourself than it is better to marry than to burn.
I Hope this Helps The Lord Bless you
