“AIDS is not contagious unless you a swapping blood”

If you mean HIV / AIDS, that’s one way. It can be transmitted through any bodily fluids — the reason cops used to be tested if they were the target of someone’s spittle.

This is what was in my program when I taught Bloodborne Pathogens and Bodily Fluids sessions in H.R. I retired in ‘80, so there may be more updated info than that, but it used to be the case.

Thank you for the information. My point stands that it is not a pandemic level contagion - you don’t get it from only close contact like the flu or covid19. I have read “what about AIDS” to the point I am starting to roll my eyes at the talking point.
