No: It's not transmitted that way. It needs to get into your tissues. You owe it to yourself to have a clear understanding, in this day and age, how HIV and cannot be transmitted. If you have obsessive thoughts that you're going to be infected with hiv, a psychiatrist may be able to help you.

No risk: This is, in no way, how HIV is transmitted or caught. There is zero risk here. If you have obsessive worries about HIV you may want to consider seeking mental health help.
