How?

Assertion : HIV- AIDS is a bacterial disease.

Reason : It spreads through sharing of food and water.

→ AIDS doesn't spread through sharing of food and water as it isn't a communicable disease. AIDS can spread through sexual contact, and if any person's body fluid who is suffering from AIDS come in contact with another person's body fluid. Therefore, reason is also false.
