I’d guess passing a needle around.

That's most of it, but HIV positive mothers breast feeding uninfected children and contaminated blood products are other transmission methods.

Thanx. I used to know all that stuff back in the late 80s. We all donated blood at the UC Cardio Center in San Francisco. Our friend’s new baby had to have a valve transplant and some of the hospital’s blood had been infected. WE came up with enough in a small circle of friends and family. Really hit close to home.
