Can touching a door nob give HIV?

No, touching a doorknob cannot transmit HIV. HIV is primarily spread through direct contact with certain bodily fluids, such as blood, semen, vaginal fluids, and breast milk, and requires specific conditions to survive outside the body. The virus does not live long on surfaces and is not transmitted through casual contact. Therefore, the risk of contracting HIV from a doorknob is non-existent.
