Solution

The correct option is B

False


AIDS is a viral disease that reduces the immunity of a person allowing different pathogens to infect them easily. AIDS spreads through sexual contact, bodily fluids, from an infected mother to foetus and through sharing syringe or needles. It does not spread through physical contact such as kissing or shaking hands, using the same toilets, sharing food or staying together.
