After sharing manicure tools, woman gets infected with HIV. This is so alarming! Watch this and be informed! Human Immunodeficiency Virus or HIV is transmitted in three modes: (a) blood transfusion, (b) infected syringe, and (c) sexual intercourse. However, a woman from Brazil is said to have been infected with the disease just by sharing manicure tools.
Hospital doctors and immunology experts still haven't identified if it indeed is the cause. An anonymous woman from Brazil claims of being infected from HIV after having shared some manicure tools with someone. She was oblivious of being inflicted with such a disease until she attempted to donate blood. When her blood was tested, it was found out that she had an alarming amount of viral load.
Notwithstanding, she denies having been inflicted by the virus through sexual intercourse or through infected syringes.
Because of this alarming discovery, some of her relatives also had themselves tested. Her mother got negative result.
The mother recalls that 10 years ago, she and her daughter shared manicure tools with one of the girl's cousins. Unknown to them at that time, such a cousin was HIV positive.
The girl's and her cousin's blood were tested and analyzed. It was discovered that the genetic material from both of the samples was related. This result yielded the possible conclusion that the virus was tranmitted through the manicure equipment, indeed. However, this speculation cannot be concluded to a medical certainty yet as further tests needed to be done.
Experts, however, posit that HIV cannot be transmitted through casual contact like the sharing of utensils, grooming tools, and the like. These experts find the above claims alarming as the stigma against HIV-positive people would worsen. It should be remembered that HIV transmission can only be done through the previously mentioned modes.
Everyone is reminded to practice diligence and extreme caution so as to avoid being infected with such a dreadful virus.
I'm sure the people with jobs in Brazil as doctors and even those partners of theirs with medical jobs in Australia are doing everything they can to analyze the incident.
