why can't HIV be transmitted through mosquito bites ?

malaria parasites can be transmitted to others thru' mosquito bites, even though in both cases the sucked blood first gets into the stomach of the bloody mosquito.

Answers:
This is commonly misunderstood.

Mosquitos have two tubes when they bite--one tube injects the blood thinner, the other tube sucks up the blood. It does not inject blood into its prey.

HIV has an extremely short life when exposed to the air (which it would be if blood had gotten onto the body of the mosquito).

Who says it can't?
i think it can, but it's very unlikely. but if the gov't told us that everyone would freak out so they want to keep it quiet.
I think its improbable, but certainly not impossible. Take things with a grain of salt in regard to the answers you find here.
I heard that could.
HIV has a shorter exposed lifespan than malaria. Also, it depends on whether we are talking about 1 bite or hundreds, and the immune system of the person being bit.
it can't be because mosquito's only take a drop of blood. and sense mosquito's can't have HIV (human immunodeficiency virus)they can't transmit it.
I agree with the other posters. It probably can. The government doesn't want to scare people. It doesn't happen very often.

Now that so many people are on anti-virals, the viral load is probably so low that it is impossible to transmit the virus from them.
the malarial parasite has a part of its life cycle inside the mosquito, so the parasite grows in there and is transmitted in a doffetent form. this does not happen with HIV. Secondly the mosquito sucks blood not inject into our bodies, it inkects some Saliva that contains the malarial parasite but not the HIV
the mosquito dies after it has had it fill of blood .
