Zero transmission of hiv. This page gives the HIV transmission rates associated with vaginal anal and oral sex as well as pregnancy and sharing needles. The report published in The Lancet medical journal shows that using ART to suppress HIV virus to undetectable levels renders it incapable of transmission during sex. An undetectable viral load lowers the risk of transmission during sex to zero whereas a high viral load makes it more likely.
