Because of the concern, disposable facemasks and various other types of personal protective devices are now being manufactured.

Answer to Question 2
The U.S. Public Health Service recommends the following precautions for reducing the chances of contracting AIDS:
Abstain from sex or have a mutually monogamous relationship with an infection-free partner.
Refrain from having sex with multiple partners or with a person who has multiple partners. The more partners one has the greater the risk of infection.
Avoid sex with a person who has AIDS or who you think might be infected. However, if one chooses not to take this recommendation, the next logical course is to take precautions against contact with the infected person's bodily fluids (blood, semen, urine, feces, saliva, and female genital secretions).
Do not use intravenous drugs or if you do, do not share needles.
