The simple answer:No, you can't. The slightly more complex answer:HIV is a sexually OR blood transmitted virus. It is not transmitted in saliva. So straws, spoons, toilet seats, cigarettes, and kissing are all quite safe. Using the same forks or drinking from the same cup will not transfer it.

HIV is spread from one person to another by riding in a living cell from one person to another. Having sex without a condom, sharing drug needles, and coming into contact with another person's blood can transmit HIV. It can also be passed from mothers to their infants during pregnancy and breastfeeding. Oral and other non-vaginal sex is slightly safter than unprotected vaginal sex, but you can still transmit the virus if the skin breaks during the process. You should always use a condom if you aren't sure if you or your partner have HIV.
