Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome or AIDS strips a person of immunity and is an irreservible condition with no known cure. The condition, itself, suffers from opinion-based 'facts' that float around in public opinion offline and, as a result, online. Today, to clear out the confusion, we filter the facts about AIDS and separate the myths from the must-know information. If you believe a mosquito bite can spread HIV and that you are insusceptible to HIV then here are 10 facts about AIDS that will change your perspective on HIV and AIDS. *Images courtesy: © Thinkstock photos/ Getty Images
