Risks identified From page 23 less than one per cent to 3.5 per cent, and the percentage of heterosexual transmission has in- creased from less than one per cent to about four per cent. Women who are in a sexual rela- tidnship with someone in a high- risk group must use condoms — net just once, but every time. Used with contraceptive foam contain- ing nonoxynol-9, which helps kill the AIDS virus, condoms can lit- erally save your life. Use condoms made of latex rubber that have been electronical- ly tested for defects. If you are embarrassed to shop in a public store, seek samples from AIDS Vancouver or Planned Parent- hood. Another risk area for women is artificial insemination. If you have made this choice, make sure you know the detailed medical and lifestyle history of each potential donor, including his drug use and sexual activities. Pregnancy brings its own concerns. Babies born to mothers carrying the AIDS virus are often affected and are more likely to develop AIDS. For more information about AIDS prevention in your area, call the toll-free B.C. AIDS Line, 1- 800-972-2437, or your local health unit. While you're remembering everyone else at Christmas...
