A member asked:
Is it possible to get aids from contact with sweat or vomit of an infected person?
5 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Anything possible: But this would be exceptionally unlikely and undocumented. Although sweat may contain the virus you would have to inoculate the sweat into the blood stream of the other person or immediately smear it into an open wound before the virus dies (and it does die very quickly). This disease is not easy to get.

No: You don't get HIV from those bodily fluids. Blood, semen and vaginal fluid are the ones that matter.
