  1. If AIDS was passed airborne, we'd all have it.


  2. How do you breathe in Aids?

  3. Its only passed through blood soooo nothing

  4. Nothing.

    The AIDS virus has to enter your bloodstream in order for you to become infected.

  5. The virus that causes AIDS is not airborne,so you can't contract HIV by breathin air

  6. Follow link, educate yourself

    Short Version:

    HIV is spread by sexual contact with an infected person, by sharing needles and/or syringes (primarily for drug injection) with someone who is infected, or, less commonly (and now very rarely in countries where blood is screened for HIV antibodies), through transfusions of infected blood or blood clotting factors. Babies born to HIV-infected women may become infected before or during birth or through breast-feeding after birth.

    Some people fear that HIV might be transmitted in other ways; however, no scientific evidence to support any of these fears has been found. If HIV were being transmitted through other routes (such as through air, water, or insects), the pattern of reported AIDS cases would be much different from what has been observed. For example, if mosquitoes could transmit HIV infection, many more young children and preadolescents would have been diagnosed with AIDS.
