What is the most important thing in AIDS prevention?

So far, there is no way to completely cure AIDS, but the disease can generally be curbed through good treatment. For ordinary people, AIDS is completely preventable. As long as you keep yourself clean, do not engage in high-risk sexual behavior, do not take drugs, do not accept contaminated blood or blood products, and use condoms correctly during sexual intercourse, these are the best ways to prevent AIDS.

1. AIDS is a serious infectious disease with an extremely high mortality rate.

There is currently no cure or treatment, but it can be prevented. 2. The HIV virus mainly exists in the infected person's blood, semen, vaginal secretions, breast milk and other body fluids, so it is transmitted through three ways: sexual contact, blood and mother-to-child transmission. The vast majority of infected people take 5-10 years to develop into patients, and generally die within 2-3 years after the onset of the disease.

3. Common knowledge about AIDS

Daily life and work contact with AIDS patients and HIV-infected people (such as shaking hands, hugging, eating together, sharing tools, office supplies, etc.) will not cause AIDS to be transmitted. AIDS will not be transmitted through public facilities such as toilet seats, telephones, tableware, bedding, swimming pools or public bathrooms, nor will it be transmitted through coughing, sneezing, mosquito bites, etc.

4. Self-love

Keeping oneself clean and abiding by sexual ethics are fundamental measures to prevent the sexual transmission of AIDS.

5. Use condoms appropriately

Correct use of condoms can not only prevent pregnancy, but also reduce the risk of contracting AIDS and sexually transmitted diseases.

6. Early treatment and cure of sexually transmitted diseases can reduce the risk of contracting AIDS.

Regular hospitals can provide regular and confidential examination, diagnosis, treatment and consultation services. If necessary, you can consult the local STD and AIDS hotline.

7. Say no to drugs

Sharing syringes for drug use is an important way of spreading AIDS.

8. Notes

Avoid unnecessary blood transfusions, injections, unsafe tooth extractions and cosmetic procedures using instruments that are not strictly sterilized, and use blood and blood products that have been tested for HIV antibodies.
