Hiv is transferred by which bodily fluids?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Blood mostly: In the most technical sense of the word..every body fluid compartment will have virons. But practically speaking, semen, vaginal fluids and blood obviously. Even saliva..but its so very scant its not at levels required to be infective.
