What are the possibilities of getting infected with hiv when the condom does not brake?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Very low: The reason public health experts advocate consistent use of condoms for every sexual encounter is that they greatly reduce the risk of transmission of many stis, including hiv. However, this is "safer" sex, not safe sex. If someone has hiv, they can help reduce the risk of transmission by being on a highly active HIV regimen and having an undetectable viral load. Gets very close to "safe".
