You cannot contract HIV from environmental surfaces and sweating is not infectious.

I'm no doc jack2208, but HIV is not transmitted through sweat (as far as I know not even theoretically). You have no worries there friend.

but you know we were going around and around many times, so the floor can't be dray fast
i was looking in the internet if there is any testes on sweat and if they found the viruse in it or not so do you have this infromation?
