Rationale:
1. The child with HIV should participate in sports. While injuries are possible, it is unlikely that large quantities of blood will be present.
2. The majority of children with HIV can attend school without restrictions.
3. Wounds should be covered, and gloves should be worn when treating a child's cuts and scrapes.
4. The child should avoid eating raw fruits and vegetables unless they are peeled, to decrease ingestion of microorganisms.
