Question: 1 / 50

How can AIDS be transmitted?

Decayed matter

Through blood or bodily fluids

AIDS (Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome) can be transmitted primarily through blood or bodily fluids. This means that it can be spread through sharing needles, unprotected sex, or from mother to child during pregnancy, childbirth, or breastfeeding. This method of transmission is possible because AIDS is caused by HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus), which attacks the body's immune system. It cannot be transmitted through decayed matter, skin contact, or water, as the virus cannot survive outside of the human body and these methods do not provide direct access to the bloodstream. It is important to practice safe behaviors and precautions, such as using protection during sexual activities and avoiding the sharing of needles, to prevent the spread of HIV and AIDS.
