HIV-infected pregnant women do not necessarily transmit HIV to their children. The fetus is not directly infected in the placenta. It is usually infected through the skin and mucosa during childbirth. Secondly, breastfeeding after childbirth can also cause HIV infection in the child. If AIDS is diagnosed during pregnancy, antiviral treatment is required under the guidance of a doctor.
