There was absolutely no risk for HIV transmission during this. HIV is a fragile virus and needs a very receptive setting.

Hiv is spread through unprotected anal or vaginal intercourse or sharing drug injecting needles with someone who is hiv positive. It can not stay on the surface of a blade looking for a host.
