HIV/AIDS Transmission: How is it Spread? (Digestive System)

No, HIV and AIDS are not transmitted through digestion. The primary modes of transmission for HIV are unprotected sexual intercourse, sharing contaminated needles or other drug paraphernalia, and mother-to-child transmission during pregnancy, childbirth, or breastfeeding. The virus cannot be transmitted through casual contact, such as sharing food or drinks, touching someone, or being coughed on or sneezed on.
