A member asked:
Can nipple biting be a source of hiv transmission?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Unlikely: Transmission of HIV through saliva is highly unlikely, since the enzymes kill the virus. If the person doing the biting draws blood and they are bleeding and have HIV disease, this is conceivable, but very improbable.
