Answer 2

How do you get AIDS?

As is the case for most viruses, HIV is contagious. It is transmitted through biofluids containing high quantities of the virus such as blood, sperm, vaginal secretions and breast milk.

The virus can be transmitted in various ways, including:

Sexually, during unprotected sexual intercourse;through drug or medication abuse, using dirty syringes;through pregnancy via the umbilical cord, when giving birth or when breastfeeding;through blood and blood products, during blood transfusions.

One of the myths surrounding HIV is the belief that it infects mainly men. In fact, from a biological point of view, the risk of contamination for women during heterosexual intercourse would be two or four times higher than that of men’s in the same context.

Prevention

There is presently no vaccine to prevent contracting HIV. The best way to protect yourself from the consequences of HIV and AIDS is to avoid being contaminated by the virus. The following precautionary measures are recommended to reduce the risks of contamination:

use a condom during sexual intercourse (vaginal, anal or oral);avoid sharing syringes;use disposable gloves when at risk of direct contact with blood;for HIV positive women, consider giving birth by caesarian section;for HIV positive women who are new mothers, consider feeding your baby with formula instead of breastfeeding;

Another precautionary measure which is essential in preventing contamination, is medical screening. If you are sexually active and have had unprotected sexual intercourse, it may be advisable to have a blood test for HIV screening. Talk to your doctor about your risk level and the relevance of the test in your situation. Contamination often occurs through sexual intercourse with an infected partner who is unaware of his/her condition.

Although AIDS is more prevalent in other parts of the world than in North America, everyone should be aware of this scourge, since no one is completely sheltered from such an infection. December 1, 2013, will mark World AIDS Day. Why not take advantage of this opportunity to have a discussion with the people close to you (i.e. your teens, if you are a parent) about HIV and AIDS, their consequences, and especially, of the ways of protecting yourself from the disease? A number of activities will be held around Canada to raise public awareness regarding the issues surrounding this disease which profoundly affects the lives of millions of individuals in the world. A contribution by each and every one of us can make a big difference.
