Hiv risk?

Had protected sex with boyfriend in public bathroon. He touched the door and put on the condom within a minute without washing his hand, is it possible that his hand got infective hiv on from those objects and pass it onto condom surface? Is there risk of me getting infected? Thx.

No risk because it is instantly inactivated and effectively dead in air, otherwise everyone in America would have HIV.
