The answer would be: A viral load of 1,200 copies/mL

Viral load determines the number of HIV virus that can be found in every mililiters of blood. More virus means more risk of transmission. A vaginal delivery will cause much more blood than cesarean delivery. The contact of the blood and the baby cause vaginal delivery is more dangerous than cesarean.
