Myths and Truths About AIDS

There are many misunderstandings and prejudices in society about HIV/AIDS.These misunderstandings have not only hindered people's correct understanding of HIV/AIDS, but also affected the smooth development of HIV/AIDS prevention and treatment. Here are some common myths and truths:

Myth 1: Being infected with HIV means a dead end.In fact, HIV infection is not the same as AIDS. HIV is a virus, while AIDS is a disease state that progresses to a certain stage after HIV infection.

After HIV infection, if treated and managed in time, the progression of the disease can be effectively controlled and life prolonged. At the same time, with the continuous advancement of medical technology and the development of drugs, the quality of life and life expectancy of people living with HIV are also improving.

Myth 2: AIDS is only sexually transmitted.Although sexual transmission is one of the most important ways to transmit AIDS, it can also be transmitted through a variety of ways, including blood-borne transmission and mother-to-child transmission.

Therefore, we should not simply reduce AIDS to a specific mode of transmission, but should have a comprehensive understanding of how it is transmitted and how to prevent it.

Myth 3: You will get infected if you come into contact with someone living with HIV.In fact, the HIV virus has extremely poor ability to survive outside the body, and it is not easy to survive after leaving the body.

Therefore, it is not possible to get HIV through daily contact with someone living with HIV, such as shaking hands, hugging, and eating together. We should respect and understand people living with HIV, and instead of discriminating against and excluding them, we should give them more love and support.
