has been shown to be present is the cervicovaginal fluid. This fluid is actually a thick mucus that covers and protects the cervix. The fluid a woman produces when sexually excited comes from glands located on either side of the vaginal

Actually, I don't agree with that reasoning. First, I'm not sure that the HIV content of lubricating secretions from the Barthonlin and Skene's glands actually has been studied. Certainly if there were inflammation of those glands, as is common in STDs, those fluids almost certainly would contain HIV -- and HIV might be there all the time anyway. Second, there is no way to separate cervical secretions from lubricating fluid. Cervical secretions are produced continually by most women, and I would not assume that fluids near the vaginal opening come only from sexual lubrication; undoubtedly they usually (always?) include cervical secretions.
