What do I do, when I get bitten by a mosquito?

Can u get AIDS by getting bitten from a mosquito?

  • i was sleeping next to my brother, and we got about 10 mosquito bites. What if we were bitten by the same mosquito?? can that get u AIDS becuase it is mixing bloods?

  • Answer:

    Mosquitoes can transmit blood born illnesses like yellow fever, so it is wise to be careful but from the government aids fact sheet: http://www.cdc.gov/hiv/pubs/facts/transmission.htm 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.

Yes, if the mosquito previously drank the blood of a HIV carrier.

they say yes but honestly they say you could get it from kissing as well but you have to exchange 10574 gallons of saliva to contract AIDS so you chose if this is likely

It's highly unlikely since the exposure to the air might kill the blood cells and cause them to clot, rendering any diseases useless in their quest to reproduce at all costs. You shouldn't be in any harm at all from this.

if the misquito just bit someone with aids then bites you yeah

No, i don't think so. HIV can't survive in mosquitos. Additionally, mosquitos don't inject blood into you, they inject their saliva... that's you can get some mosquito borne diseases.

NO WAY! I learned about this at health science. AIDS is caused by the HIV virus. It spreds by sexual maturity, reproduction, hyperdemic needles, and, rarely, blood transfusions.

no! aids is a retro virus,it cannot live outside a living cell,Once a mesqueti eats the cells are killed when the cell dies the virus dies.
