On Mosquitos and AIDS/HIV

So, I was doing my regular work today, being swarmed by mosquitos as usual, and then a thought struck me. Let's say I was HIV/AIDS positive, and one of the little buggers got away from my angry smush attempts, and then proceeded to go suck someone else's blood, would that person than contract my AIDS/HIV? And if so, I wonder how many people have had the illness passed on to them from a mosquito?

  • From my understanding of Mosquitos, they only feed once since the females need the protein to create their eggs. They wouldn't feed multiple times from several people nor would they mix the blood they drank with another person's.
