If you got stabbed by Wolverine right after he stabbed someone, would it likely you get AIDS by Wolverine unclean claws?
If you got stabbed by Wolverine right after he stabbed someone, would it likely you get AIDS by Wolverine unclean claws?
i honestly have no idea how aids works
doesnt the first stabbed guy need to have aids for it to spread to the second stabbed guy? could wolverine just cover his claws with condoms?
Yes the first person has to have AIDS. Does Wolverines healing factor protect him from disease? Or would it turn him into Deadpool with AIDS?
HIV is the virus. AIDS is what happens after you've had the virus long enough that it kills your immune system.
Wolverine's claws always have a thin layer of his blood because they have to cut out of his skin. He definitely has HIV considering the number of people he's stabbed over the years and how old he is. Other people's blood get on his claws which retract into his body and lets the HIV spread in his blood stream. It doesn't affect him because of his healing factor so he'll never get AIDS, but that doesn't mean that the virus isn't reproducing in his blood stream like everyone else with HIV. So yeah, if Wolverine stabs you, and you live, you'll have HIV and it'll probably turn into AIDS if since you wouldn't even realize you were at risk for it, therefore you wouldn't seek out treatment. So Wolverine's kill count is way higher than people realize because of this.
I would be more worried about amdamantium poisoning
He's performed multiple blood transfusions over the years and as far as I'm aware, none of them got HIV.
Since they're technically his bones, his claws just eradicates the disease on contact.
could he cure my aids by stabbing me?
If you survive the multiple stabbings then probably
i figured since his skin always heals after he pops them it effectively wipes them clean of blood before getting into his body
Both deadpool and wolverines healing factors protect them from disease. It's just that cancer is a loophole because cancer is essentially your cells multiplying out of control that can only be stopped by destroying the afflicted cells, which can't be done with a healing factor.
HIV on the other hand is a virus that preys on the immune system. After it's gone on long enough it leaves you in a state of having AIDS in which your immune system can no longer function and you die of common cold. It's impossible for wolverine or wade to contract HIV because healing factor destroys viruses. So if bub gives you an accidental blood transfusion then yeah, you're getting HIV if he doesn't bleed you dry.
>It doesn't affect him because of his healing factor so he'll never get AIDS, but that doesn't mean that the virus isn't reproducing in his blood stream like everyone else with HIV.
That's exactly what it means you brainlet.
>You've let Apocalypse kill him!
>No. I've saved us all.
>Wolverine's special mutant immune system is curing him.
>And by doing so, he's creating the antibodies that all mutants will need to survive.
>We have the cure now, Apocalypse! Your virus is useless!

Also non-superhuman immune systems already kill HIV. They just don't kill enough of it. Infants treated for HIV have cleared the virus before it gets a chance to go dormant.

>Recent reports of the cure of HIV in two infants[133] are presumably due to the fact that treatment was initiated within hours of infection, preventing HIV from establishing a deep reservoir.[134]
I would be more worried about if he would sign by stab wound or not and working up the courage to ask
>If you got stabbed by Wolverine right after he stabbed someone, would it likely you get AIDS by Wolverine unclean claws?
Possibly, although AIDS would be the least of your problems compared with the big stab wounds.
no you'd probably die of being stabbed
only if he stabs all the virus particles, and they're very small so it would be hard
No, you can't acquire AIDS by infection. You can only acquire HIV that way and subsequently develop AIDS.
Additionally, HIV is such a phenomenally short-lived virus outside the body that it would really have to be very quick - the reason people get HIV from sharing needles is that the needles are still warm from the other body. You're incredibly unlikely to acquire HIV from a cold needle (do not get blase about needles, you can catch lots of other stuff from them much more easily).
Furthermore, the "donor" of HIV would have to have high levels of the virus in their blood. It's not enough for them to be infected or even an asymptomatic carrier - they have to have sufficient levels of the virus that it can enter your body reliably (most of the blood is likely to go outside you.
Frankly, any wound caused by large bladed weapons which is open enough and sudden enough to transfer HIV between two individuals is probably a much more immediate risk to life. You get stabbed like that, you gon die long before HIV takes hold of you, let alone AIDS.
>he's got a healing factor so he can't be affected by a virus he definitely has
>the virus multiplies freely in his bloodstream
I'm not sure you've thought this through at all
Viruses are living things. Are you saying that Wolverine can "heal" himself from a tapeworm, rather than just healing the damage caused by one? What about bacteria then? He's absolutely fucked if his body is constantly "healing" him from his good gut bacteria.
His healing factor is practically magic. It kills the tapeworm and expunges its corpse, magically knows which bacteria to target and always only heals exactly what it should. If it wasn't that stupid convenient, he would have died a long time ago. It even makes him immune to radiation.
viruses are living things
which immune systems kill
Does the possibility of getting aids really out match the whole "I just got stabbed straight thru my entire torso by 3 of the worlds sharpest objects"?
I think the excruciating pain, and growing darkness from rapid blood loss would be more important to you for quite a while.
here you go
>He's absolutely fucked if his body is constantly "healing" him from his good gut bacteria.
wouldn't his healing factor protect him from all of the negative effects of not having good gut flora though?
I imagine most people who have AIDS are either in the hospital or taking drugs to suppress the virus
>Viruses are living things
not really
>self-replicating strands of rna aren't living
If not HIV definitely Hepatitis
It’s a technical thing
Viruses aren't living things. They can't reproduce or create energy on their own, they have to infect a living cell to make a reproduction of itself. The immune system destroys viruses by preventing infected cells from reproducing, HIV is deadly because the virus directly infects cells in the immune system. For super self healing, there has to be some sort of advanced immune system that identifies good host dna vs bad foreign dna, so it would kill both viruses and mutated cancer cells before it could have a chance to spread.
>self-replicating
Jesus.
>it doesn't count as self-replicating because it needs to use other organisms to do so
>*proceeds to eat other organisms for energy so he can "self-replicate" by ejaculating into another organism*
I would be more worried about getting fucking stabbed.
Only gays have aids. Look up cdc info.
This guy. I swear I've seen this thread posted periodically for like 5 years now. Why are you so obsessed?
wolverine's blood is probably some of the purest if not the purest blood on the planet. he is literally immune to disease
He's finding magical reasons where he got his AIDs instead of getting pozzed in his fruity ass.
