Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The most common way AIDS is transmitted is through unprotected sex with an infected person. While AIDS can also be transmitted through sharing needles or from mother to child during pregnancy, childbirth, or breastfeeding, these routes of transmission are less common than sexual transmission. Transmission through unsanitary foods and utensils is extremely rare, and since 1985, all donated blood in the United States has been screened for HIV, making transmission through blood transfusions extremely rare as well.
