What Does It Mean to Have âUndetectableâ HIV? Increasingly we are talking about embracing an identity where we are openly living, without shame, not just as people with HIV but, crucially, as people with an undetectable virus. And yet it’s important to remember that it’s still possible — however unlikely — to transmit HIV even with an undetectable viral load. Though the person’s blood may contain minuscule amounts of the virus, it may still exist in other bodily fluids, like semen or vaginal or rectal fluids.

Diagnosis of HIV/AIDS HIV tests are used to detect the presence of the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), the virus that causes acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS), in serum, saliva, or urine. Such tests may detect antibodies, antigens, or RNA. CD4 count does not check for the presence of HIV. It is used to monitor immune system function in HIV-positive people. Declining CD4 T-cell counts are considered to be a marker of progression of HIV infection. A normal CD4 count can range from 500 cells/mm3 to 1000 cells/mm3.

Why is it that HIV virus is not transmitted via mosquitoes? Diseases such as yellow fever and malaria are transmitted through the saliva of specific species of mosquitoes. However, HIV lives for only a short time inside an insect and, unlike organisms that are transmitted via insect bites, HIV does not reproduce (and does not survive) in insects.
