Hmmm....: Human HIV infects humans, and perhaps primates such as chimpanzees, but does not infect underwear. Haven't seen any research studies looking into whether or not HIV can be spread by sharing underwear. Doubt such studies will be done in the future. As they say, "Don't sweat the small stuff." If one is a worrier, don't share underwear. If not a worrier, sharing is fine.
