Solution

The correct option is B False
AIDS stands for Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome, a set of conditions caused by a virus called human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).
It is spread by:
  • Blood transfusion from an infected person to a normal person.
  • Unprotected sex with an infected person
  • From an infected mother to child.
It doesn't spread through saliva or sweat of an infected person, nor does it spread by treating or nursing them.
