You have been told so many times that you not going to get infected from blood out side the body ..!

I know the  fear which you are having but don't let it eat you up ..!
30+ years of study & research has told us that Hiv  " can " ( not always ) transmit the following ways :-
1. Hiv+ mother to child.
2.Unprotected sex anal/vaginal with an Hiv + person  ( carries possibility of getting infected )
3.Needle stick injuries with Hiv+ blood.
4.Blood transfusion if the blood is infected with Hiv.

Their is NO other way you can get infected by Hiv.!

really ????????
Are you sure it was blood or tomato sauce which you tasted ??
Come on don't make these kind of stories what do you want to ask??
If your question is that fresh blood outside body is infectious or not then the answer is  " NO ".!

I've heard a stranger story like the HIV virus jumping from a mans pen onto anothers guys credit card then into his pocket & somehow infecting him.You definately have more chance of winning a jackpot then contracting HIV that way.

HIV INFECTION OCCURS INSIDE THE BODY!!!
Vance2335 - Maybe I will win the lottery the same day you discover the lockness monster and get hit by lightning at the same time as I do collecting my win?
Being serious this story sounds almost impossible.

[Vance2335]

I'm sorry but this story is so unbelievable it's not funny. You just happen to fall and your mouth touched the ground that had blood on it...come on. You better play the lottery and watch out for lightening and go looks for the Lockness Monster, because you have a better chance of those things then you do of the story above actually happening.

Anyway no risk.

No risk & no need to test.HIV becomes inactive & unable to infect once outside the body.
