i have read ALL of your exchanges here AND on the expert forum.

trivial cuts, scrapes, and scratches pose NO risk.  

hiv is transmitted through...
unprotected vaginal/anal intercourse
sharing iv drug works
mother to child

PERIOD.

Hi
why arent "trivial cuts, scrapes, and scratches" no risk? isnt it still an opening for the virus? and what is "trivial". also, when you talk about cuts, scrapes, and scratches does it apply to your face as well as the rest of your body, or only fingers. I am just trying to understand.
Thanks.
