Game: Don't Trust Your Eyes

Continued from Page 1

Discussion Points:

• HIV transmission: HIV is not spread by casual contact, this game is just meant to illustrate a point.  HIV can only enter the body through the four main body fluids (blood, semen, vaginal fluid and breast milk), via cuts, sores, openings in the skin, or the soft, wet tissue in the vagina, anus, penis or mouth.
• HIV testing: The only way to discover one’s HIV status is by having an HIV test – it is not possible to know your own HIV status, or anybody else’s, just from physical appearance.
  
  
• ABCs: Since you cannot guess a person’s HIV status, you should always practice the ABCs.
  
  
• Shared responsibility: HIV/AIDS is a threat to everyone, and people living with the HIV deserve care and support.
