There is no cure for HIV/AIDS, but it is preventable.
• Choose not to have sex, or make an agreement
with a partner who is not HIV-positive to be sexually
faithful to each other, and stick to it.
• Use a condom for vaginal or anal sex, and
barrier methods, such as a condom or dental dam for
oral sex.
• Do not share needles for injection drug use.
• If you are HIV-positive and you are pregnant,
see your health care provider to get treatment to significantly
reduce the risk of passing HIV to your child during
pregnancy and delivery.
Get Tested! And
ask partners to do the same.
