It's not a gene, but a virus. Therefore it is not hereditary. The virus can be passed on from the mother to the baby though via the bloodstream.
I don't understand the second part of your question. To prevent a pregnancy, the safest way is to take the pill AND have the partner use a condom.

HIV/AIDS can be transmitted to a child during pregnancy. If a pregnancy were to occur, there are drugs that can be used to help limit the chances of transmission, but the risk is still present.
Condom is the most obvious form of contraception. An IUD is a viable option for person that really want to limit their risk of pregnancy (note that this is usually recommended for women who have had one child already).

Yes, it is possible for someone who has aids/hiv positive to pass on to thier unborn baby. However, there are drugs available to prevent that. Most important for the mother to get tested as soon as possible. so anti viral drug can be administer.
There are no 100% pregnancy proof other than not having sex at all. Most effective way is combining use of condom and other female oral contracpetives....

nope... HIV is a virus, not a gene... although there are ways that the mom can transmit the virus to the child during child birth... something to do with there will be some sort of exchange/communication between mom's blood and the child's... it won't be appaent for at least 3 months after the baby is born because maternal something ( i forgot0 is still dominant in the baby's under developed immunity

Today there shouldn't be anybody that doesn't know everything possible about AIDS. Babies can get it from the mother if she has it whiles she's pregnant. You can get it if you come in contact with body fluids from someone with AIDS. An example......if your grandmother has AIDS you won't get it because she's your grandmother, but you could get it if you have an open sore and if for some reason you come into contact with some of her blood. Please, please educate yourself ...you could save your life and the life of any children you may have.

Peer pressure would artwork. in simple terms start up declaring 'being a pregnant youngster in simple terms isn't cool. that's so 5 minutes in the past. not the element this year.

Be disapproving and scornful about women getting pregnant. "She so did not might want to attempt this. they might have waited till they were out of school and may want to help themselves. waiting is extra acceptable." preparation about sex in most circumstances, and each and each and every of the kinds of birth control mutually with abstinence, ought to earnings from the sixth grade although 12th grade. that's going to be a needed classification too. two times per week all for the time of center college, once per week in HS yet needed. If the students start up inquiring for sex preparation instructions it will make an excellent distinction. So ask, bypass to the college board assembly too and ask for sex preparation instructions that tutor all kinds of birth control. Petition your college directors. Write the Governor and the State Legislators. IF the students ask for it and save asking that is going to take position.
