Blood coming out of mouth can it transmit aids?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
HIV: Blood is one of the ways that HIV is transmitted; however, it's more complicated then you think. The blood coming out of the mouth would have to get into the other person. Nonetheless, caution should be considered. Don't ever risk the possibility and discuss your concerns with a physician.
