I live in Barbardos,mosquitos bite me alot. if one bites a person with aids, why cant they transfer the virus?

No. Sexual intercourse, blood transfusion and sharing IV needles infected with HIV/AIDS virus etc can infect. Not by mosquito bites.

because AIDS dont live in animals, incects, etc.

Mosquitoes Digest the Virus that Causes AIDS
When a mosquito transmits a disease agent from one person to another, the infectious agent must remain alive inside the mosquito until transfer is completed. If the mosquito digests the parasite, the transmission cycle is terminated and the parasite cannot be passed on to the next host. Successful mosquito-borne parasites have a number of interesting ways to avoid being treated as food. Some are refractory to the digestive enzymes inside the mosquito's stomach; most bore their way out of the stomach as quickly as possible to avoid the powerful digestive enzymes that would quickly eliminate their existence. Malaria parasites survive inside mosquitoes for 9-12 days and actually go through a series of necessary life stages during that period. Encephalitis virus particles survive for 10-25 days inside a mosquito and replicate enormously during the incubation period. Studies with HIV clearly show that the virus responsible for the AIDS infection is regarded as food to the mosquito and is digested along with the blood meal. As a result, mosquitoes that ingest HIV-infected blood digest that blood within 1-2 days and completely destroy any virus particles that could potentially produce a new infection. Since the virus does not survive to reproduce and invade the salivary glands, the mechanism that most mosquito-borne parasites use to get from one host to the next is not possible with HIV.

They can.

Because HIV is a very fragile virus. It needs to stay at a very specific temperature and pH to live, and those conditions aren't met inside a mosquito. Also, Mosquitos fill up fast. It's not likely they'll feed on someone with HIV and then bite someone uninfected within the virus' window of viability- especially considering the ratio of infected to uninfected people. The odds are in your favor for coming out simply itchy, not infected.

BRAVO!! ktjokt!!! 10 points

does not live in animals.
