| Response from Mr. Kull
 You are only at risk for HIV infection through contact with HIV infected blood if the blood had direct access to your mucous membranes or bloodstream. The behaviors primarily associated to this type of transmission are anal, vaginal, and oral sex, and sharing injection needles for drug use. If you are not engaging in these activities, you should not consider yourself at risk for HIV infection. RMK | ||||||||
