Is it possible for you to get hiv from bloody phlegm?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Only if the bloody : Phlegm is from a person with hiv. Blood and bloody fluid from an HIV infected are likely to have the HIV virus and if such material gains access to your blood, you could get hiv. Just being around bloody phlegm will not cause the disease.
