Can HIV be transmitted through mosquitoes?

0

• No, mosquitoes do not transmit HIV. When mosquitoes feed on blood from a person they only inject their saliva, which serves as a lubricant and allows the insect to draw blood more easily. In addition, HIV does not reproduce or survive inside mosquitoes, unlike organisms that are transmitted via insect bites.
