In one minute, you can understand how to prevent AIDS!

The infection rate of AIDS is increasing year by year. Sexual transmission is a major factor in its spread, accounting for a very high proportion. To reduce the spread of AIDS, we must first start with prevention. I hope the following five prevention methods will be helpful to you.

1. Security Behavior

Use condoms during all sexual activities. Sexual intercourse without proper condom use, such as vaginal and anal sex, is a high-risk activity. A few people have been infected through wounds during oral sex with someone who is HIV-positive, but this is generally considered low risk. However, if you want to be absolutely safe, use condoms even during oral sex.

2. Do not share needles

Do not share your needles with others, and do not use needles that have been used by someone else.

Health care workers can avoid the spread of HIV between patients and staff, and between patients, by following certain safety measures. The risk of HIV infection through acupuncture is less than 1 in 200. Using anti-HIV drugs to disinfect after acupuncture can further reduce the risk of infection.

3. Understand the routes of HIV infection

Generally speaking, you will not be infected with HIV through contact with AIDS patients, such as shaking hands, going to public toilets, using public telephones, swimming, showering, talking, eating together, etc. Therefore, to prevent AIDS, you must know the ways of AIDS infection.

Experts say that sexual intercourse, blood transmission and mother-to-child transmission are the main routes of HIV transmission. For example, when kissing, if both parties have problems such as oral bleeding, the virus may enter through the damaged mucous membrane or tongue, thereby infecting the person with HIV.

4. Homosexuals are more likely to be infected with AIDS

Sexual behavior between gay men has a special way of doing things, so it is easy to get hurt and bleed. Therefore, if the semen of the other party containing the virus enters the body through the broken parts, it will cause infection. Therefore, homosexuals should take safety measures during sexual life to avoid HIV infection.

5. The possibility of HIV being transmitted through saliva is very small

So generally speaking, kissing will not transmit HIV. However, if the healthy person has a wound or a crack in the mouth, and the AIDS patient also has a crack in the mouth, and the two kiss, HIV may be transmitted through blood. Sweat will not transmit HIV.
