How to Prevent AIDS

So you have thought you will contact aids because you have shaken hand with an AIDS patient! Or are you afraid because you have come to know that you have shared the bathroom and swam in the same swimming pool with the person infected with AIDS.

Are you skeptical about the food that has been cooked by an AIDS patient or do you stay away from the blood drives for the same fear of contacting AIDS? Or do you have the impression that you have the risk of catching AIDS through sweat, cough or sneeze of the infected person? Do you really believe that you can get AIDS if bitten by the same mosquito that bit an AIDS patient? Well, if these are your ideas regarding the transmission about HIV, then I must say you are grossly under informed. It's high time that you start doing some meaningful researches to know the real causes of HIV transmission in the human body.

Here are some instances where you have the chances of contacting this deadly disease.

Suppose you have undergone a blood transfusion following an accident. There are chances of HIV virus entering your body through the donated blood. Suppose the carrying mother contacted AIDS, then the child will be born with AIDS viruses in his blood. Do you have this dangerous habit of changing your sex-partner every alternate day? Then you are at a high risk of being infected with AIDS, as unprotected sex with a partner having AIDS is the most potent cause of AIDS.

Then another way AIDS virus can enter your body and that is by using a needle with the remains of AIDS infected blood in it. You can also get AIDS if the blood from the wounds of an infected patient gets into yours by an open wound.

So you can see, AIDS is hard to contact and it is not a contagious disease in the sense flu is. AIDS causing HIV virus is spread through the blood; it does not survive in the sweat, tears or air.

Here are some tips to help you prevent this disease.

-Avoid having unprotected sex with multiple partners. Never reuse condoms.

-Be careful to take only HIV free blood, if you ever need to take blood at all.

-Never pick up any needle from the ground and never let it enter your body.

-Always use disposable needles and syringes.

-Be careful not to share needle at the time of body piercing or tattooing.

-In the salon, never share razor.

-You can kiss an AIDS patient in the cheek, but do not go for deeper kiss, as AIDS virus can be sometimes found in the saliva.
