Can HIV transmitted through mosquito?

Question

Can really mosquito cause us infected with HIV by transmitting blood from people infected with HIV to us?

Answer 1

No. The HIV virus is very fragile ,and outside the human host it cannot stay "alive" for more than a handful of seconds.

Also the amount of blood a mosquito takes is way to small to be able to gain a representative and infectious sample of HIV from the first host.

So no, you cannot get HIV from a mosquito bite.

Answer 3

No.

The results of experiments and observations of insect biting behavior indicate that when an insect bites a person, it does not inject its own or a previously bitten person's or animal's blood into the next person bitten. Rather, it injects saliva, which acts as a lubricant so the insect can feed efficiently. Diseases such as yellow fever and malaria are transmitted through the saliva of specific species of mosquitoes. However, HIV lives for only a short time inside an insect and, unlike organisms that are transmitted via insect bites, HIV does not reproduce (and does not survive) in insects. Thus, even if the virus enters a mosquito or another insect, the insect does not become infected and cannot transmit HIV to the next human it bites.

Answer 4

No. There has never been a transmission of the HIV virus via an insect. If this were the case, then practically the entire world population would have been infected by now. Why HIV doesn't affect all creatures the same is a mystery. If this mystery could be solved maybe a cure can be found??? who knows...

Answer 5

Yes it is possible but very, very unlikely. The only way it can happen is if you are next to a HIV positive person and the mosquito jumps from them straight to you within seconds. Also the mossie has to have blood on its suckers still to infect.

Answer 6

The three main transmission routes of HIV are sexual contact, exposure to infected body fluids or tissues, and from mother to fetus or child during perinatal period. It is possible to find HIV in the saliva, tears, and urine of infected individuals, but there are no recorded cases of infection by these secretions, and the risk of infection is negligible.

but not through vectors like mosquito

Answer 7

the HIV virus dies when it comes in contact with oxygen, and when the mosquito bites you all of your blood is air-rated and oxidized so there is no worry,

if this transmission could happen you would see many more people infected and a full assault on the mosquito population by humans

Answer 8

Till date no. But research are being conducted to check it's possibility but till date it is inconclusive.

Answer 9

I would believe so.
