• Some diseases can be spread through contact of the mouth, nose, throat or sexual organs with bodily fluids such as vaginal fluids.
• These include hepatitis B, HIV, and CMV. 

Hepatitis B

• Hepatitis B or HBV can be contracted by a person exposed to body fluids such as vaginal secretions.  
• It is a highly contagious disease that can spread through contact with the nose, mouth or even eye membranes.
• The HBV virus can stay on dried body fluids for 7 days, but can be destroyed by using chlorine bleach, rubbing alcohol, or heat.

HIV

• HIV is another serious disease that can be carried by vaginal fluids. 
• However, to be transmitted, it needs to get into a person's bloodstream directly. 
• HIV cannot be transmitted through normal contact and can be destroyed outside the body with detergents.

CMV

• CMV can be transmitted through body fluids without sexual contact, and stay in the body for life as there is no cure for the virus.
• Sexual contact with vaginal fluids is not required for the person to be infected.
• CMV infection affects the majority of adults, as the virus can remain dormant.
