Can HIV/AIDS be passed on through Mosquitoes?!


Question: Can HIV/AIDS be passed on through Mosquitoes!?
Ok, it's like this!. Mosquitoes drink blood, and thus this provides a stable environment for viruses and bacteria to thrive correct!? So, does this mean that mosquitoes can transmit HIV through carrying the virus in their bodies and passing them on to the next person they penetrate!?Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
No mosquitoes cannot transmit HIV !. The amount of blodd they carry in their probosis is so miniscule to cause infection!. The H in HIV stands for Human!. HIV thrives only in human beings!.studies conducted by the CDC and elsewhere have shown no evidence of HIV transmission from mosquitoes or any other insects - even in areas where there are many cases of AIDS and large populations of mosquitoes!. Lack of such outbreaks, despite intense efforts to detect them, supports the conclusion that HIV is not transmitted by insects!.

The results of experiments and observations of insect biting behavior indicate that when an insect bites a person, it does not inject its own or a previously bitten person's or animal's blood into the next person bitten!. Rather, it injects saliva, which acts as a lubricant so the insect can feed efficiently!. Diseases such as yellow fever and malaria are transmitted through the saliva of specific species of mosquitoes!. However, HIV lives for only a short time inside an insect and, unlike organisms that are transmitted via insect bites, HIV does not reproduce (and does not survive) in insects!. Thus, even if the virus enters a mosquito or another insect, the insect does not become infected and cannot transmit HIV to the next human it bites!.

There also is no reason to fear that a mosquito or other insect could transmit HIV from one person to another through HIV-infected blood left on its mouth parts!. Several reasons help explain why this is so!. First, infected people do not have constantly high levels of HIV in their blood streams!. Second, insect mouth parts retain only very small amounts of blood on their surfaces!. Finally, scientists who study insects have determined that biting insects normally do not travel from one person to the next immediately after ingesting blood!. Rather, they fly to a resting place to digest the blood meal!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

No, that's imposable!. That is not the way aids is transmitted!. Aids is a disease that you almost have to be trying to get!. Like using needles passed around without sterilizing first or not having safe sex!. !.It worries me that the virus mutates and gets easier to contract!. by mosquitoes, casual contact, or even airborne!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

No, according to the Centers for Disease control!. Although yellow fever, malaria can be transmitted, tests (supposedly) have shown that HIV cannot reproduce in insects!. So supposedly even if HIV enters an insect it cannot survive and the insect does not become infected!. So!.!.when a mosquito bites you it cannot infect you!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
