Which of the following is not a means of transmission of AIDS?
1 Sexual contact with uninfected person
2 Transfusion of contaminated blood
3 Sharing infected needles
4 Child born to an HIV infected mother
Explanation:
Transmission of AIDS generally occurs by sexual contact with infected person, by transfusion of contaminated blood and blood products, by sharing infected needles as in the case of intravenous drug abusers and from infected mother to her child through placenta.

Select the correct statements. I. AIDS was first reported in 1981 and the word 'syndrome' in this means a group of symptoms. II During HIV infection, the macrophages cells of body continues produce virus and in this way acts like a HIV factory.
1 Only I is correct
2 Only II is correct
3 Both are correct
4 None are correct
Explanation:
Statement I: The word AIDS stands for Acquired Immuno Deficiency Syndrome. This means deficiency of immune system, acquired during the lifetime of an individual indicating that it is not a congenital disease. 'Syndrome' means a group of symptoms. AIDS was first reported in 1981 and in the last twenty-five years or so, it has spread all over the world killing more than 25 million persons. Statement II: After getting into the body of the person, the virus enters into macrophages where RNA genome of the virus replicates to form viral DNA with the help of the enzyme reverse transcriptase. This viral DNA gets incorporated into host cell's DNA and directs the infected cells to produce virus particles. The macrophages continue to produce virus and in this way acts like a HIV factory.
