You can have protected sex, do not share needles, and avoid blood to blood contact meaning if someone is bleeding and you have an open wound avoid it or cover the open wound. There are several ways that you can catch this disease so you should be careful. The worst part of it all is that there are no cures for this deadly disease. There are people that are born into this world with HIV. They have not done any of the above but they still have to deal with this disease. This can happened if the parent is positive and the child has a major possibility to have it.
