What is HIV?
"HIV" stands for Human Immunodeficiency Virus. HIV lives in blood and other body fluids that contain blood or white blood cells. A person who has the virus can pass it on to others through unsafe sex and sharing injections and mothers can pass the virus on to their babies. You can’t tell if a person has the virus by looking at them, you can only know if you have the virus if you go for a test.

You can become infected with HIV from even one instance of unprotected sex. While complete abstinence is the surest way to prevent the sexual transmission of HIV, protecting yourself with a latex condom or barrier at every sexual encounter is very important.
