The reason is because once the virus leaves it's host (aka the HIV+ guy) It is no longer active, basically dies. it cannot live outside its host. That is if there is hiv living in saliva, which thier isn't. As for there being blood in the spit, still no risk, it was dead long before it reached your friend. Hope this helps.
Thanks for the response. Would you care to elaborate why there is no risk? We thought that since the eye is a mucous membrane and the saliva had HIV positive blood, there was a minor risk. Is there no risk because HIV cannot be transmitted through the air/eyes? What is the reason that there is no risk?
Again, thanks for taking your time and responding. Appreciate it.
Nope. No risk. your friend is fine.
Thank you for taking the time to read and respond. Appreciate your input.
Anyone else have an opinion on the matter?
