Condoms aren't always that reliable because they can break or already have a hole in them. But your likelyhood of catching it with a condom is alot lower but you are still at risk. That is vaginal/anal sex. But oral sex, I'm pretty sure your likelyhood is very low.
2 :
I dont know the exact statistics, but you would not be completely protected from HIV, no. The risk = too much to be worth it, in my opinion.
3 :
condoms do not protect agains sexually transmitted diseases.
4 :
Unless you have sores in the mouth or esophagas you should be relatively safe...stomach acids have been shown to kill the virus.
5 :
It is absolutely NOT complete. Secretions slip through the top of the condom. I myself am too afraid these days of being with someone no matter how clean they appear. They may not even know they are HIV positive. Symptoms of HIV may not appear in a person for 10 years.
6 :
Oral sex is a low risk activity for acquiring HIV. It is important to remember that there is still risk. Using condoms properly lowers the risk even further. That being said, it does not eliminate it. Condoms are medical devices in the US and Canada and must meet rigorous testing to make it to the shelf. Do people who use condoms as contraception sometimes get pregnant... YES. Do people who use condoms to control the spread of STIs... YES. It is about risk, and what level of risk you are comfortable with. That being said, if you get tested and your partner is tested and you are in a monogamous relationship you will have a pretty good idea of what level of risk you are really dealing with. The reality is nothing is perfect; condoms are not an exception. Seatbelts save lives in car crashes, condoms save lives when it comes to sex.... neither is 100% perfect. You have to weigh your risks. Good luck!
7 :
eh, not a large chance, but there is a chance, even if theres a condom
8 :
Well considering your partner is positive, the risk of transmitting HIV orally when using a condom are extremely rare. A good site to check out which holds a discussion of experts in this area looking at the risks from oral sex with HIV positive partner with No Protection. http://hivinsite.ucsf.edu/InSite?page=pr-rr-05 Hopefully after reading some of that and adding a condom in to the mixture you would agree it is very low.
9 :
If you are having oral sex...... which means shes sucking and ur licking kinda stuff. Its 99%impossible to get aids, but herpes.....etc are possible. Because to get aids she would have to put a gallon of saliva all over you and it would have to enter into your blood stream. But.... if you are having vaginal, anal sex then a condom wont protect you, you may still get an std. Just get checked and have her get checked. I mean its free at most if not all clinics and this way both of you will enjoy sex much more.

What are the chances of catching HIV/AIDS from someone that doesn't have it by anal sex without a condom
What are the chances of catching HIV/AIDS from someone that doesn't have it by anal sex without a condom?
Me and my girlfriend had anal intercourse without a condom maybe a week ago. Up until now I didn't know it was so risky. So what are the chances of me catching HIV/AIDS from that even though we are both HIV/AIDS negative because we have never had sex before.

If neither of you have HIV/AIDS then it is IMPOSSIBLE to get it from each other. One of you would have to have the virus in order to spread it to the other. HIV/AIDS just doesn't "appear". Take care!
2 :
I don't think that it is possible because one of you would have to have HIV in order to catch it. So i think that you are ok.
3 :
No....and stop buggering your poor girlfriend
4 :
You cant catch anything from a person who doesnt "have it"
5 :
you can't acquire HIV/Aids if neither of you carry the virus. But don't have sex without condoms again! You can't trust someone's a virgin just because they say so and you could pick up all sorts of nasty stuff by putting your unprotected penis in someone's dirty botty.
6 :
you can only catch it through exchange of fluid with anoather infected person. If your girlfriend were infected you could catch it through any of the more traditional sex acts, ansl sex has nothing to do with it.
7 :
You should be fien, unless one of you lied or uses unsteralized needles you should be fine. Don't worry you are good. The only thing you should worry about is if you do have anal you can rip and tear certian tissue which could cause bleeding but other then that nothing to worry about. =]
8 :
wow u both have never had sex before and already shes letting u get it from the buttocks...OUCH!!
9 :
the only way is if she been gettin it from some dude on the street... like me, per-say...
10 :
ok if the two of you never had sex b4 ...does it really make sense for you to ask a question like this ..come on...lol

What is your personal perspective of the hiv/aids epidemic
What is your personal perspective of the hiv/aids epidemic?
I would like to know people's personal perspective of the hiv/ aids epidemic.

its just another virus to be afraid of. and i think we need to develop a universal cure for viruses, no matter what makes them up
2 :
A terrible illness, somewhat easy to avoid in most instances, keep it in your pants, be faithful and if you must stray or experiment,keep it wrapped up, no glove no love!
3 :
its like that song bombs over bhagdad by outkast but instead of bhagdad its africa and instead of bombs its aids
4 :
terrifying.
5 :
Very scary, very sad. Find a cure!
6 :
It doesn't really effect me.
7 :
It's horrible. What else is there to say about it? It just awful and I'm sorry that anyone has to get this disease. It's not fair. And for anyone who doesn't think they are affected by it, don't be so sure. My friend contracted HIV and died of pneumonia. I'm just a working class, married, woman, librarian, and mother. I thought I would never be directly affected by HIV either. I was wrong.
8 :
As horrible as it is to say, like all other diseases and ailments, it is a bringer of balance, controlling over population and over consumption. Not to say it isn't a devastating and terrible epidemic, but disease and death is part of existence.
9 :
i believe that if parents weren't actually kids who are having kids these days that it wouldn't be as bad, but since the parents are kids they are not teaching their kids on the safety of sex. It is actually sad, but what can you do it's going to happen whether we like it or not, and it's not like you can do a background check on every person you plan to sleep with and some people will not be honest about what they have. I know I personally have an STD and was just stuck with it and I am not angry with that person it has actually made me a better person. The guy I am with now before I even followed through with an relationship I made sure he knew exactly what he was getting himself into STD and CRAZINESS... he got the whole package before it was sent.

My mum and dad are both doctors. When I was really little mum got a phone call and she had to rush to the hospital, I had to go because I was too young to stay home alone. We went into this cubicle and there was a man lying on the bed, and he couldn't have even been 20 (this was in Zimbabwe). He was thin, gaunt and crying, but the worst part was that his cubicle was empty except for my mum, me and several other doctors. All his family had died of aids and now he was. I cried for the whole day. Later my mum told me that the HAART therapy he was going to receive would cost $15, 000 a year. He couldn't afford it so he died that day, coughing up blood.

I read that it was created in a US Bio weapons lab splicing a harmless retrovirus with another virus to make a virus that would attack the immune system. Spread to Africa by the WHO using contaminated Smallpox vaccines (mistakenly or deliberately????). Front page news in Russia but called disinformation by the US government (but I attached a link to an audio confession of a Merck scientist attached). The original government weapons development documents for the HIV virus can be found online with a bit of searching. This activist has the blueprint available to researchers.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ECV52iiLbRM&feature=related He claims that its a race specific Bio-weapon and the cure is US Patent 5676977 Remember the W.H.O. workers were arrested in Libya because of this too? I didn't find it surprising or hard to believe at all and its not the first time, its been going on since 1904. The US government has been spraying, feeding and injecting deadly drugs, virus', uranium, mercury, fluoride etc etc on the US population, military families, foster children and orphans for decades. To make matters worse the disease has been severely over-diagnosed and some of the expensive drugs used to treat it are more deadly than the disease. More pharma exploitation of the situation they created. Sites with the evidence are revealed in the last video link.
