No looking after a child does not make one get the disease.It is good to take care of these patients and give them necessary drugs.They need care and love just like any other patients.

Q.12 years ago, I had unprotected Sex with a Prostitute one time and after that i haven’t done that mistake. I am now scared with HIV thoughts. I didn’t notice any HIV symptoms in my body. Kindly help me are there any chances of being HIV Positive. I have donated blood several times and didn’t get any comments so far from charities. Kindly help me with your valuable comments. By: Rex

Response: Dear Rex 12 years ago since you had unprotected sex is quite a length period, you might be safe but still someone may stay with HIV/AIDS for more than 12 years without any showing signs. Therefore you need to test yourself for HIV/AIDS so as to confirm your status and on the other hand use condom and be faithful to your partner.

Q. Will it help prevent HIV/AIDS if i wash my private parts 10 min. after having sexual intercourse? By: David Junior- Bulanga

Response: Dear David,washing your private parts 10 min.after having sex with a person who is infected with HIV may help or my not help. This will only help if you don’t have any sore or bruise around or on your private parts. But their is need as well to wash inside your skin that is if you are not circumcised.
Washing your private parts after sex shouldn’t be your weapon as it will put you under high risk of contracting HIV/AIDS.

Q. I had sex with my ex many times and did abortion twice, now will this cause HIV if i have sex with my new boy friend? By: Matama – Bunya

Response: Currying out abortion has no relation with HIV/AIDS but you can get HIV/AIDS if you have unprotected sex,so you need to go for HIV testing before you continue having sex with your new boy friend
How ever their is need for you to test together with your new boy friend because he might infect you too.

Response: Hi Labib this is very dangerous having unprotected sex with a girl friend whose status you don’t know. This may lead you to various venereal diseases that will affect your health. However you need to go for HIV/AIDS plus other venereal diseases blood testing.
