What is HIV?
HIV is a virus that weakens the human immune system and, over time, can cause AIDS. This virus usually spreads through:
Contact with infected blood
Unprotected sexual contact
From mother to child during pregnancy, childbirth, or breastfeeding
Mosquito can Spread HIV after Bites HIV infected person?
However, mosquitoes cannot spread HIV. The reason lies in their biology. When a mosquito bites a person with HIV, the virus cannot survive inside the mosquito. Within 1–2 days, the virus dies while the mosquito digests the blood.
The World Health Organization (WHO) and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) have confirmed that mosquitoes do not transmit HIV.
Diseases like dengue and malaria spread because viruses or parasites grow inside the mosquito’s body and are then passed to another person. But HIV does not replicate inside mosquitoes, so it cannot be spread this way.
According to WHO, mosquito-borne diseases still cause nearly 700,000 deaths every year worldwide, but HIV is not one of them.
Final Thought
While mosquitoes are carriers of serious diseases like malaria, dengue, and chikungunya, they do not transmit HIV. Understanding this helps reduce unnecessary fear and focus on real preventive measures—like safe sex, proper blood handling, and timely medical care—to protect against HIV. Staying informed about how diseases actually spread is key to keeping yourself and your community safe.
