A member asked:

Can i get hiv if i use toilet paper that have hiv+ blood on it while having hemorrhoid that is bleeding.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Many things possible: But, in real life, people do not catch HIV from toilet paper, toilet seats, or any other part of a bathroom. The infections that a person can catch in the loo are stomach flu germs (usually viruses) and hepatitis types A and E. That's because those germs are in the poop, poop splashes onto toilet seats, people touch toilet seats with their fingers, and fingers touch mouths.
