Blood brothers

Is licking someone else's blood a risk for HIV? Like blood brothers and sisters? The body.com says it's indeed a high risk and I want to know your intake on that please.

We don't debate the info people find on other sites.

NO, you cannot get HIV from ingesting someone else's blood.  That being said, there would be some other diseases for which becoming a "blood brother" would be a small risk.

It's just kind of a dumb thing to do.
