The way that an HIV infection occurs is through a fluid-blood contact. If the HIV-infected person had none of their blood on their fingernail, your chances of infection are zero.
Fluids that carry a high titer of HIV include blood, semen, vaginal fluids and breast milk. Fluids of the nervous system and joints also contain a high concentration of HIV, but t is very unlikely to come in contact with these fluids outside of the health care industry.
HIV is transmitted thru warm blood to blood contact with someone who has the HIV virus thats it there is no other way.
