Mr. Teak. Why eating or drinking is no risk? The digestive system goes directly to blood strea. And that's how medicine is digested and then to blood stream. Also what if the person had a cut or a sore in the mouth? I'm trying to educate myself on the virus
TOTALLY different than a virus entering the bloodstream. You can NOT get HIV by consuming the virus. The saliva, and then digestive acids would render the virus inactive and unable to infect.
