Am I infected with HIV?

How is HIV Transmitted?
HIV enters the body through open cuts, sores, or breaks in the skin; through mucous membranes, such as those inside the anus or vagina; or through direct injection. There are several ways by which this can happen:
1. Unprotected sexual intercourse with an infected person
2. Sharing needles, syringes, or other injection equipment with someone who is infected
3. Mother-to-child transmission
4. Transmission in healthcare settings. Healthcare professionals have been infected with HIV in the workplace, usually after being stuck with needles or sharp objects containing HIV-infected blood.
5. Transmission via donated blood or blood clotting factors. However, this is now very rare in countries where blood is screened for HIV antibodies, including in Singapore.
