passing hiv in household
Nov 14, 2009

Can you pass hiv on to others without sexual contact. What if you did not know you had hiv and had semen on your bed and kids slept in bed could they be infected?

Response from Dr. Young

Hello,

With the exception of sharing of razors, household transmission of HIV has never been documented.

I think that the kids will be fine.
