I want to ask a question that baffle me a lot .If my hands touch HIV blood, and I knead my eyes immediately.Is there any risk? a famous Chinese HIV expert once says there exists risk if the infected blood touches the mucous membrane. But I have doubt about that.
Can you answer my question? Thank you very much.^ ^

He can't be that famous and he is no HIV expert if that is what he has or was saying.HIV is so fragile outside the body that it becomes damaged upon contact with air and therefore unable to infect you.
