hey teak , ave read some of the articles in your forum are here i knew this.that if someone has bleeding gum or a bleeding cut in the mouth the hiv blood virus would be inhibited by the proteins in the saliva which hiv cant be transmited.is it true please clarify? And my secound specific question is that ,my bite was not that big to need sutures and in your forums u said it needs severe trauma and lots of blood to transmit hiv,does dr hhh agrees with this fact? Please answer me to have a piece of mind.thanks again
