Answer 1

Acquired immune deficiency syndrome or acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS or Aids) is a collection of symptoms and infections resulting from the specific damage to the immune system caused by the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).[1] The late stage of the condition leaves individuals prone to opportunistic infections and tumors. Although treatments for AIDS and HIV exist to slow the virus's progression, there is no known cure. HIV is transmitted through direct contact of a mucous membrane or the bloodstream with a bodily fluid containing HIV, such as blood, semen, vaginal fluid, preseminal fluid, and breast milk.[2][3] This transmission can come in the form of anal, vaginal or oral sex, blood transfusion, contaminated hypodermic needles, exchange between mother and baby during pregnancy, childbirth, or breastfeeding, or other exposure to one of the above bodily fluids.

Most researchers believe that HIV originated in sub-Saharan Africa during the twentieth century;[4] it is now a pandemic, with an estimated 38.6 million people now living with the disease worldwide.[5] As of January 2006, the Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS (UNAIDS) and the World Health Organization (WHO) estimate that AIDS has killed more than 25 million people since it was first recognized on June 5, 1981, making it one of the most destructive epidemics in recorded history. In 2005 alone, AIDS claimed an estimated 2.4–3.3 million lives, of which more than 570,000 were children.[5] A third of these deaths are occurring in sub-Saharan Africa, retarding economic growth and destroying human capital. Antiretroviral treatment reduces both the mortality and the morbidity of HIV infection, but routine access to antiretroviral medication is not available in all countries.[6] HIV/AIDS stigma is more severe than that associated with other life-threatening conditions and extends beyond the disease itself to providers and even volunteers involved with the care of people living with HIV.

Answer 3

Wow I'm surprised at this question. AIDS is spread through blood and genital secretions. Unless either partner is infected and has a cut in their mouth you can not (perhaps, but so rare as to not have been yet documented) get it through oral sex. It is usually spread through sex without a condom or sharing needles, and one of the people involved have to be infected. It is first HIV, no symptoms. When the person starts to get sick, then it is AIDS. Saliva does not transfer the virus. Use a condom. Know your partner!!!

Answer 4

It can be contacted through direct contact of body fluids.A condom is the only reliable way to avoid this. Oral sex still counts as a transfer of bodily fluids. Look up more about this online and or talk to a health professional.

Answer 5

1. Through unsafe sex with more than one woman.

2. Blood transmission.

3. Unstrelised injections.

4. Aids infected Pregnant mother to child.

5. Homosexual , Lesbian relationship.

Answer 6

Read "And the Band Played On." It tells the history, beginning with the first case of AIDS in USA.

Answer 7

Unprotected intercourse, use of syringes and needles which have been used for infected patients, oral sex, blood transfusion from an infected person or HIV carrier and also a dentist (who may also be a carrier).

Answer 8

HIV is transmitted by the exchange of bodily fluids. Most effectively it is transmitted by sexual intercourse but also by needles and blood transfusions. HIV is what develops into AIDS.

Answer 9

Nobody can say for sure, the virus is supposed to travel trough fluids containing blood.
