HIV/AIDS can be transmitted through non-sexual routes such as sharing needles, mother-to-child transmission, and contaminated blood transfusions.

HIV/AIDS can be transmitted from one person to another through several non-sexual routes:

Through sharing needles or syringes contaminated with HIV-infected blood, such as in the case of intravenous drug use.
From an HIV-positive mother to her unborn baby during pregnancy, childbirth, or breastfeeding.
Through blood transfusions or organ transplants from an HIV-infected donor.

It is important to note that HIV cannot be transmitted through casual contact such as hugging, shaking hands, or sharing utensils.
