 There is no chance of getting HIV from saliva. You can only get HIV from blood, semen, breast milk, and vaginal fluids. There is no risk of getting HIV from casually interacting with HIV positive people. This is a scary misconception to have so I'm glad you're asking your question! Hope this helps! Erik | ||||||||
