HIV, Hepatitis B and C are diseases that are carried in the blood. These diseases are not spread through everyday contact. They can be spread through unprotected sex, from a pregnant woman to her unborn baby, and through blood and blood products. If needles are shared, individuals are exposed to the blood of another person. If a person is infected with Hepatitis B or C or HIV there is a risk of the disease being spread.
