A)Clients can reduce their risk of contracting HIV by remaining abstinent; engaging only in long-term, mutually monogamous sexual relations between uninfected individuals; or engaging in mutual masturbation without direct contact. If clients opt to engage in sexual activity beyond these categories, they should use condoms during every encounter, no matter whether it involves vaginal, oral, or anal intercourse. Autologous blood transfusions are another appropriate prevention strategy for clients who are scheduled for surgery; however, clients should be cautioned against seeking blood donations from family members, as these individuals may be reluctant to disclose whether they have engaged in any high-risk behaviors.
