Spit from mad woman

A mentally imbalanced female spat on my face a few days ago. I later gathered she was hiv positive. If her saliva got into my mouth, would I become infected. I am worried.

Saliva of viremic individuals usually contains only noninfectious components of HIV indicating virus breakdown.
