Just for information, for research for school project

Can you get aids by receiving oral sex with someone who is infected?

What are the odds of catching aids if receiving oral sex with a sex?

Serious question, also, can you get aids if you sat naked on infected seamen?
Or does it have to be ejected into the body through sexual intercourse?

Thank you,

You can not pass aids by sex, or body fluids of any kind. You can, however, pass hiv. Hiv is what is passed between people, not aids. Hiv slows the production of your white blood cells. When your blood count falls below a certain mark, you are considered to have aids or acquired immune deficiency syndrome. Aids is gained as a result of the affect of hiv. Hiv can be present, but dormant in people for years, or the affects can begin within weeks.

Can you get hiv from by receiving oral from someone with hiv? Yes!
What are the chances of receiving hiv through oral sex? If your partner is infected, the chances are pretty great.
What are some symptoms of aids? A low white blood cell count.
What are some symptons of hiv? There are no standard symptoms.
Serious question, also, can you get aids if you sat naked on infected seamen? Or does it have to be ejected into the body through sexual intercourse? If you sat naked in it, no, unless you had an open wound that came in contact with it. Basically, if any opening in your body (mouth, cut etc.) comes in contact with infected body fluid of someone who does have hiv, you can get hiv.

Good luck on your project!
