ITT no one is discussing properly
Latex gloves have a pore size of about 5 microns (and the virus in question has a size of about 1 micron). Latex condoms are double coated, so the protection is far greater than a glove (good to know), but not necessarily immune to transfer.
Assuming the aids virus can transfer as a free virus (as opposed to just an intracellular virus which would be impossible due to the size of sperm cells, viscosity of semen etc), which several notable research figures have suggested it may be capable of, latex condoms are not a fool proof way of preventing the transmission of aids during sex even if they remain unbroken or are used correctly.
:smug:
ITT hardly anyone knew this and therefore
sex education is currently inept

NEXT ON THE AGENDA: WHY YOU NEED MORE THAN ONE SPERM CELL TO GET PREGNANT
