Is it possible to catch AIDS from Milk injected with blood that has HIV?

Is it possible to catch AIDS from Milk injected with blood that has HIV?
I watched the movie Confessions (2010), but I didn't think it is possible in reality. The teacher also said HIV cannot be transmitted by sex. Is that true?

I thought it was the opposite (HIV Blood injected in milk cannot transmit AIDS, but sexual intercourse definitely can)

  • It's probably not impossible but pretty unlikely. If you are concerned about people adding unsafe things to your food, there are much worse things they could put in it.

    Here's the official U.S. Government page on how HIV gets transmitted:

    https://www.cdc.gov/hiv/basics/transmission.html

    That includes sex, so the teacher is wrong, but if you haven't figured it out by now, teachers aren't fond of being corrected.

  • oh wait, i created this thread not even finishing half of the movie. the teacher was actually fooling with the kids who killed her daughter.

  • Dont get your facts from shitty movies. The teacher sounds like a irresponsible cunt for telling students you cant get hiv from sex and that movie sounds crap. Hiv infected milk? Wtf kind of paranoid lunacy is that!

  • In theory, yes. In reality, probably unlikely to the extent of impossibility. Not that I actually know what I'm talking about, though.

  • What i don't understand was that the Teacher exacted a more cruel revenge on Student A (who wanted to kill her daughter but failed to do so) instead of Student B (who didn't want to kill her child in the first place but ended up doing so)

    You can't get AIDS from ingestion of a tainted liquid. The virus can't survive outside of the human body, and can't survive inside a beverage. The virus needs direct access to the bloodstream to be transmitted.

    The most common ways to get the disease is through sex and through needle and drug use.

  • I should qualify this by saying up front that I'm not a native English speaker. I like to think I'm fairly fluent, but I am certainly not above the occasional basic-level goof-up. People in my part of the world like to pride themselves on their English proficiency. While I suppose it's true at least as far as statistics go, the fact remains that we are not a native-English-speaking region. A lot time, we're not half as hot as we think we are, but all of those surveys and statistics have gone to our collective head. Case in point: "I speak well English." If I had a penny every time one of my goddamn peers said this, I would be able to afford proper English instruction for every last one of them. Maybe then they'd finally stop saying it. You don't speak well English. You can speak English well, or you can speak good English. You can also speak well, but you have to leave it at that. "Well" is an adverb. It modifies the verb. The verb is "speak." "Good" is an adjective. It modifies the noun. The noun is "English." There's nothing wrong with making mistakes. God knows, I don't get through an English conversation without cocking up at least three times. But don't act all superior just because we have a reputation for good English skills, then go and say some dumb shit like this.

    I can't tell if that was a meme or not... Regardless, here's one just cause. ;)

    You can't catch AIDS, its the last phae of HIV infection, you can catch HIV if you get exposed to fresh blood usually if your natural barriers, skin mucous membranes are damaged. So the scenario seems very unlikely. HIV is quit often transmitted during sex if you dont use condom.

    Yes and no if you have some extensive damage to your oral mucosa and you drink fresh blood the chances of infection can actually be somewhat high (similar to sexual transmission rates), there are quit a few reported cases of HIV transmission via oral sex. Testing your HIV status is never a bad idea, even if the chances of transmission are not high so I disagree with that answer..

    Sure, it would be possible if you were to drink tainted blood directly from a wound, or from a source of blood that's been kept fresh (like from an IV bag) if there is damage present in your mouth or in your digestive system. The Vancouver helpline's answer still holds true in that case, as it stated that the virus needs direct access to your bloodstream, and the virus would have direct access from the tainted bloodstream to your bloodstream through the cuts or sores in your body.

    It's absolutely impossible to get it from a tainted liquid though. The virus can't survive when it's diluted in a drink.

  • being curious be like

  • Depends on conditions, it takes time for the virus to be inactivated if its mixed with some other liquid. Those sites usually give a simplified answer. :) Heres some reaserch on it.
