HIV is not transmitted in that way, HIV is not like the flu, luckily for us, and it requires very specific conditions to be transmitted.

Hello, doctors and epidemiologists around the world overwhelmingly agree that HIV is only transmitted by unprotected vaginal or anal penetrative sex, sharing needles or mother to child.

You have nothing to be afraid of, and there's no need for any testing.

Hope this helps.

Kissing is NOT a risk for HIV even if your partner had small cuts on her lips.

You do not have HIV and do NOT need to test.

Your sore throat and cough sound like the common cold.
