| Response from Dr. Young Sharing a soda won't transmit HIV, so I wouldn't recommend testing. As for your family member, a CD4 count of 10 is very low and indicates very advanced HIV disease and AIDS. His prognosis is guarded, but with proper medications and clinical monitoring, he has a very good chance of recovery. -BY | ||||||||
