Why is it that one of the partner who is infected cannot infect the other in the discordant couple?

The issue perhaps is not that the HIV partner cannotinfect, but that the partner has not yet infected the non-infected partner.Odds are that an infected person who has unprotected sex with the non-infected partner will eventually pass on the disease.Research has shown that there is a small percentage of the human population that is incapable of contracting the HIV virus due to a genetic mutation that does not allow the virus to reproduce. However, unless this is the case with all discordant couples (which is highly unlikely) the virus will likely be passed on with repeated exposure.
