Question 1

could a female anopheles mosquito spread hiv/ aids?

Accepted Answer

No: HIV is not spread by mosquitos.

Question 2

can you get hiv if a mosquito with hiv +ve blood flew into your nose? i'm not sure if it came out or not because i didn't see it when i blew my nose

Accepted Answer

No, thankfully: Fortunately HIV does not survive in the gut of a mosquito.  So even if freshly engorged with an HIV+ person's blood, transmission in this way is not possible.

Question 3

i kill a mosquito with my hand and touched my penis same hand  with moquito blood did any risk of getting hiv if mosquito has hiv +blood?

Accepted Answer

: No, HIV transmission is not possible in above mentioned scenario, HIV related anxiety is likely, talk to your doc about your fears.

Question 4

i was masturbating i killed a mosquito with my right hand and i might have contacted with the blood of the mosquito. then with the same right hand i touched my penis if blood in mosquito has hiv +blood does it cause hiv?

Accepted Answer

: The amount of exposure as described is unlikely to lead to HIV. Firstly the quantity of blood on your hand and the fraction of that on the skin of your penis, then the fraction of that gets into your meatus will likely be inadequate. However out of abundance of caution wash hands with soap and water when ever hands are dirty or contaminated with animal or human bodily fluids before touching self

Question 5

squashed mosquito on eye, mosquito blood went into my eye later i rubbed into a broken pimple on face if mosquito sucked hiv+blood,risk get hiv+? i need to go test?are i can skip?

Accepted Answer

: Hmmm.... millions of people are bitten by blood-sucking mosquitos every day. Many mosquitos are squashed into a bloody mess, although a tiny bloody mess. We do not check bite victims for mosquito-transmitted diseases merely because bloody mosquitos are getting squashed on them. The disease risk is too tiny. To test would mean testing millions of people over and over, which is impossible to do.

Question 6

hiv from mosquito if it smashed on open  eye if mosquito has hiv +blood inside gut? some dotors say hiv live upto 48 hours inside mosquito but most doctors say can tranmits by smashed mosquito any one slove this maths clearly?

Accepted Answer

: Any risk is theoretical only; actual transmission has never been known to happen in this way. The ONLY way you ever might be at risk of HIV is through sex or shared needles with an infected partner. Disregard and do not worry about any other kinds of exposure.

Question 7

mosquito cashed on my eye with full of blood and mosquito blood into my eye and rubbed into broken pimple on face later friend told uwill get hiv if mosquito sucked hiv+ blood,iam in panic my heart ready to blast,fear to getout of my bed,can't study?

Accepted Answer

: It is very unlikely that the mosquito incident will result in you being positive for HIV. If you are concerned, get tested at 1 month, then again at 6 months. You can even talk to a Dr about using Prophylactic AntiRetroVirals.

Question 8

can you tell me if mosquito bite spreads hiv easily?

Accepted Answer

No: They don't spread HIV.

Question 9

i have canker sore and i think i might of eaten a mosquito. can get hiv if the blood from the mosquito got into my canker sore?

Accepted Answer

No: Mosquitoes do not carry HIV.  You can't get it from an insect called a Mosquito. Only human to human transmission through blood borne products, direct contact, unsafe sex practices, sharing needles. These are examples of the most common ways to become infected with Human Immunodeficiency Disease (HIV)
