I'm worried about dengue spreading between people. If my wife has dengue and we kiss, could I get infected too?

Dengue is primarily spread through the bite of infected Aedes mosquitoes. It is not spread through direct person-to-person contact such as kissing. However, it is important to take precautions to prevent mosquito bites, especially if your wife has dengue. You can use mosquito repellents containing DEET, wear long-sleeved clothing, and use mosquito nets to reduce the risk of mosquito bites. If you develop symptoms of dengue such as high fever, severe headache, pain behind the eyes, joint and muscle pain, rash, and mild bleeding (e.g., nosebleeds, bleeding gums), you should seek medical attention.

I had unprotected sex about a year ago and then tested positive for HSV 12 IgG. Now, after a year, I got retested and it shows negative for HSV. But, whats worrying me is that my Western Blot test says HIV 1 is indeterminate with HIV 1 p24 GAG detected, and HIV 2 is not detected. Also, the HIV 12 ELISA test is negative and the HIV 1 RNA quantitative PCR test shows 'Target Not Detected'. I'm really anxious about what this means. Do I have HIV? What should be my next steps? I'm really hoping for some guidance on how to interpret these results.

Yes you can have it no problem
