Why Mosquitoes Cannot Transmit AIDS
though the article's heading is why mosquitoes cannot transmit AIDs, if you read it carefully, it only tell you how low the chances of mosquitoes transmitting AIDs are.low chance doesn't mean no chance.
quoting from the article,
"a mosquito that is interrupted while feeding on an HIV carrier circulating 1000 units of HIV has a 1:10 million probability of injecting a single unit of HIV to an AIDS-free recipient."
well, if you are suay enough to be that 1 out of that 10million, too bad. earth have 6bn people these days. do the math urself, there's still a possibility that you may end up as one of the 600 out of the 6bn.
"As a result, mosquitoes that ingest HIV-infected blood digest that blood within 1-2 days and completely destroy any virus particles that could potentially produce a new infection."
if the mosquito bites another person immediately, or before it digest the virus, you could still be infected.
meanwhile, i would say not to worry about catching aids from mosquitoes. go worry about dengue first.

That guy really fated to die LOL .
reminds me of this fun fact. that 1 every million parachute will fail. and now there is another backup chute, which is another 1 in every million. so the chances of both failing is 1 in a million times 1 in a million.
lol imagine u pull the first chute, doesn't work, and you pull the 2nd chute, and it doesn't work either, but a tag came out and written on the tag is this:
"See you in awhile~ =) - G"
