Answer to Question 1

The depressed immunity of people with HIV infections places them at extremely high risk of developing foodborne illnesses. Water can also be a source of foodborne illness and is a common cause of cryptosporidiosis in HIV-infected individuals. In places where water quality is questionable, patients should consult their local health departments to determine whether the tap water is safe to drink. If not, water used for drinking and making ice cubes should be boiled for one minute.

Answer to Question 2

True
