Can you get AIDS from mosquito bites?

Answer 1

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 2

No Mosquitoes first find a place to lay their eggs then once the eggs are laid it heads off to get blood from either a human or animal then return to feed the eggs the blood that it has transformed into a protein type food.Then once it's done feeding the eggs within minutes the mosquito is dead.There are other infections such as west nile virus you can contract if a mosquito stings you .And if not treated in time you can die of this virus. So if you really want to be safe you should use a bug spray containing a good amount of Deet..good luck..and be safe
