Is it possible to contract HIV from mosquitos?

The Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) can be contracted in two ways: exchange of foreign blood containing the virus and through sexual contact with a carrier of the virus. I know HIV can be contracted from reused needles. Mosquitos use certain needlelike apparati (if thats a word...) to extract blood. Mosquitos, as we all know, go to many people to get blood, thus injecting each host with the same "stinger" (I dont know the official name of the needle). So, is it possible to contract HIV from Mosquitos and other types of parasites or bloodsuckers?

Thanks and God Bless.

According to the CDC...no...
