I am not a physician and I am not an expert in infectious disease. The statements below about concentration of virus come from easily found on-line sites and are not to be considered definitive or expert health advice. Even the slightest possibility that this would happen makes that activity way too great a risk. There would however be a very real risk of contracting Hepatitis A. Stool can contain small quantities of blood called fecal occult blood, and blood clearly is a vector through which AIDS can be transmitted. However at this time it appears that stool with no visible blood, even if fecal occult blood is present, does not pose a risk of infection with HIV. It is like tears and saliva; there is too small a concentration of the virus in those fluids to bring about infection. See Dr Robert Frascino's comments at link below.
