How is AIDS contracted

Everyone should know about AIDS. If you get this disease, your life will be greatly affected, and this disease is difficult to treat. If someone gets AIDS, we will think that his lifestyle is very indecent. Generally, AIDS is transmitted through sexual intercourse, and some people get AIDS through blood transmission. How is AIDS transmitted?

AIDS has become a very common disease all over the world, and more and more people are suffering from this disease. If someone has AIDS, it will pose a serious threat to their health and will also be discriminated against by others. So how do people get AIDS?

AIDS is an infectious disease for which there is currently no effective treatment, so prevention should be the priority. If you suspect that you have been infected with AIDS, you can first review whether you have engaged in "risky behavior" (mainly referring to unsafe sexual behavior, such as prostitution, sexual contact with multiple people, anal sex, etc.; sharing unclean needles for intravenous drug use; receiving potentially contaminated blood or blood products; using needles that have not been strictly sterilized or other instruments that may cause bleeding, such as razors, ear piercing needles and tattoo instruments; pregnant women infected with HIV giving birth, etc.). However, shaking hands, polite kissing, sharing clothes, gloves, shoes and socks, sharing telephones, hugging, sharing toilets and restrooms, sharing tables, chairs and benches, sharing books, pens and paper, eating together, sharing swimming pools and baths, and being bitten by mosquitoes will not transmit the HIV virus.

Experts point out that with the increasing pressure of life, some people need sex to relieve stress. However, if they are unfortunately infected with AIDS, it will seriously threaten their quality of life and even cause irreversible physical damage. As a contagious and high-risk disease, it has always caused extreme panic. It is reported that 7,000 people are newly infected with HIV every day worldwide, and when one person starts treatment, three more people will be infected. The HIV test strip is a major breakthrough.

For a long time in the past, many people did not know much about AIDS. They only knew that it was a very hidden, easily spread and currently incurable disease. Therefore, when people hear about AIDS, they generally become extremely panicked. Experts point out that the lack of knowledge about AIDS is the fundamental reason why many people panic about AIDS and become infected with "AIDS phobia". Fortunately, the emergence of HIV/AIDS test strips has effectively delayed and helped everyone get rid of the fear in their hearts. So what is an HIV test strip? Does self-testing work?

The so-called HIV self-testing refers to testing oneself through HIV test strips, just like measuring body temperature with a thermometer. It is much simpler than going to the hospital for HIV testing in the past. This is also the most effective method for detecting AIDS developed so far. It is timely, effective, convenient and accurate.

How is AIDS contracted? If you suspect that you may have the disease, you should go to the hospital for examination in time and go to a specialized health department for testing. If you have AIDS, don't be too afraid. It is best to actively seek treatment and have confidence in life. At the same time, you should also do a good job of preventing AIDS to avoid being infected with AIDS.
