A member asked:
Is it possible to get hiv from cut touching a cut?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes, but...: Theoretically, yes. Does it ever happen? Hardly ever. If a person with untreated HIV were to bleed into someone else's fresh open wound, HIV could be transmitted. But this is definitely not what's keeping the epidemic going.
