Al-Marsad newspaper: Dr. Abdullah Al-Hogail said that forbidden sexual intercourse is the greatest means of transmission of “immunodeficiency disease”, pointing out that the disease is transmitted in 5 ways.
Al-Hogail explained, during his meeting on the “Saudi Arabia” channel, some of these methods, stating that there are two basic methods that make up about 95% of the first emerging cases of blood, its derivatives and organs, and this risk of infection is less than 1 in a million, except for organ transplants in overseas shopping malls.
He added: The second method is from mother to fetus, and in the past the infection rate was up to 50%, but now, with the drugs and treatments you take during the period, the infection rate is 1 in a thousand. .
And he continued: There is a specialist hospital in the Kingdom that has assisted in more than 180 births of mothers with the disease, and all the births have gone well, and a condition for the safety of the newborn is that the mother undergoes the health care during, before and after pregnancy.
And he continued: Also, among the methods of transmitting the disease are sharp tools, scalpels and needles, which are still present in drug addicts and those who are vulnerable to disease and other serious illnesses.
He concluded: It is not true that only homosexual intercourse is the cause of disease transmission, and what is true is that sexual intercourse in general, whether homosexual or non-homosexual, causes disease and 92% of infections occur because of it.
