Question

Which is the second most common way of spreading HIV?

(a) Sexual intercourse with HIV infected

(b) Sharing needles

(c) Sharing food

(d) From infected mother to child

I have been asked this question in my homework.

My question is from HIV and AIDS in section Human Population and the Environment of Energy Management

Answer 1

Correct answer is (b) Sharing needles

For explanation I would say: Sharing needles is the second most common way that HIV is spreading. Sexual intercourse with HIV infected is the most common way of HIV spreading. Any person who shares needles with someone who is HIV positive is at risk for HIV.
