>> Cuidate means taking care of who you're with.

>> Cuidate means being in control.

>> Cuidate means being careful.

>> What does it mean to be careful?

Being careful means deciding whether or not to have sex.

Sex doesn't just happen.

>> Being careful means knowing how to talk to your partner about sex before you have it.

>> Being careful means knowing how to protect yourself

and your partner if you decide to have sex.

>> Being careful means knowing how to walk away if you can't protect your partner or yourself.

>> And if you're not in control or careful, you can get pregnant, an STD, or HIV.

>> What's HIV?

>> HIV stands for human immunodeficiency virus.

That's the virus that causes AIDS.

>> HIV and AIDS can be treated.

And there's no cure right now.

>> And once you have it, you really have it.

>> What does that mean?

>> There are drugs that can treat AIDS,

but you will need to take them every day for the rest of your life.

>> HIV and AIDS can hurt your family, your future, and your dreams.

>> Anyone can get HIV.

You can get HIV if you're a boy, if you're a girl, if you're gay,

if you're straight, or if you're rich or poor.

>> You can get HIV if you're Latino.

In fact, Latinos and African Americans are now getting infected with HIV more than ever before.

>> How do you get HIV?

>> HIV is in blood, semen, vaginal fluids, and breast milk.

You can get it from having unprotected oral, anal, or vaginal sex.

>> You can get HIV if you're using an infected needle if you're doing drugs.

>> You can get HIV from getting piercings or tattoos with used needles.

>> But you can't get HIV from hugging, sharing food, shaking hands, or from using a toilet.

>> The only way to know if you or someone else has HIV is to get tested.

>> You can't tell if someone is infected with HIV just by looking at them

or because they tell you they don't have HIV.

>> It's better to know.

Get tested to protect yourself and your boyfriend or girlfriend.

>> Get tested.

Show that you care.

>> How else do we take care?

>> Talk to each other.

Your parents, your brothers, sisters, friends, aunts, uncles, or another adult you trust.

>> Talk to your boyfriend or girlfriend before you have sex.

>> Make sure you're really ready for sex.

>> If you're not ready for sex, learn how to say no, and don't have sex.

>> How do we know if we are ready for sex?

>> If you're ready to deal with what can happen

after having sex like getting pregnant or an STD.

>> If you know how to protect yourself and your partner, and you know how to talk about it.

>> If you know how to use condoms correctly.

>> And if we are ready for sex

>> Then use latex condoms every time you have sex.

Any type of sex.

One time is all it takes to get pregnant, get an STD, or get HIV.

>> Use a latex condom if you're on the pill or using birth control.

Birth control protects you from getting pregnant,

but it doesn't protect you from STDs or HIV.

>> Protect your boyfriend or your girlfriend.

Have sex with only one partner.

>> Take care of yourself and your loved ones.
