Question

how can hiv/aids be transmitted? choose four correct answers
exchange of body fluids with an infected person
contact with the blood of an infected person
contact with an open hiv sore on an infected person
direct skin - to - skin contact with an infected person
contact with semen or vaginal secretions of an infected person
transmission to a child during pregnancy and delivery by an infected mother

Explanation:

HIV/AIDS is transmitted through specific routes. Exchange of body fluids (like in unprotected sex), contact with infected blood (e.g., sharing needles), contact with semen or vaginal secretions (unprotected sexual acts), and mother - to - child transmission (during pregnancy, childbirth) are valid. Direct skin - to - skin contact (like hugging) and contact with an open HIV sore (HIV is not transmitted through sores in a non - fluid - exchange context) are not valid transmission routes.

Answer:

• Exchange of body fluids with an infected person
• Contact with the blood of an infected person
• Contact with semen or vaginal secretions of an infected person
• Transmission to a child during pregnancy and delivery by an infected mother
