Saliva does contain enzymes and antibodies that can inhibit the HIV virus, but it is not effective in destroying HIV in blood. The concentration of the virus in saliva is significantly lower than in blood, and while saliva may offer some protective factors, it cannot eliminate HIV. Therefore, relying on saliva as a method to combat HIV in blood is not viable. Safe practices and medical treatments are essential for managing HIV effectively.
You can't get HIV from saliva. That's true even if it comes in contact with your blood.
No; highest concentration of HIV is in blood.
No, you can't get HIV from kissing or spitting. Exception is if the saliva has blood in it.
Yes, but it would take an ENORMOUS amount of saliva to transmit the virus. Like a few hundred gallons.
Yes, saliva does contain HIV; however, there is not enough of the HIV virus in saliva to transmit it to anyone. There are 4 requirements to transmit a pathogen which are: A pathogen, in sufficient quantity, with a proper entry site, and the person has susceptibility to catch the pathogen. The second condition, sufficient quantity, is not met with saliva.
No, not unless theres a cut in your mouth.
It can, but it's unlikely. To be safe, get checked if this happened to you.
No, HIV is not transmittable through tear, saliva, or sweat. The only way that saliva would be able to transmit HIV is if there was a significant amount of blood present, and it enter into an open wound of a person.
HIV does not refer to a disease, but a virus that in-turn causes the disease AIDS. HIV is transmissible via the blood and saliva.
If the person is infected with HIV, it is not likely via saliva only you would contract the virus. But if HIV contaminated blood is in the saliva, then it is possible to get HIV.
HIV's are found everywhere.
You can't get HIV from sweat or saliva. HIV is transmitted by blood, semen, vaginal secretions, cerebrospinal fluid, and breastmilk.
