HIV is widely spread mostly through sex. Today, our country has devices to screen the blood that is being donated. Thus HIV transmission through bloood transfusion is preventable to a major extent. Also, a HIV mother can abhort her fetus so as to prevent her child from acquiring the virus. As i said, prevention is better than cure. First of all, no extra/pre-marital sex, if at all, then safe sex. Only if one acquires HIV will one pose the threat of transmitting it.
