HIV Drug Question

by raymon977, May 11, 2008 10:35AM
Just a question.

If a IV drug user used a tea spoon to burn his/her drugs and put the needle on the spoon to fill the syringe, is this a risk for HIV if the person did not clean the spoon and someone else used the spoon to make a hot drink of tea or coffee? I know this is very strange but it is freaking me out.

1 more question.

Is there any risk to me if I touched HIV sperm without knowing? I mean when it is outside the body... If I touched it and rubbed my eyes, or eat some food would this be a risk if I had these fluid on my hands?

No there is no risk. You can't contract HIV off of either situation.
