Hello, is it possible to get hiv through sharing a hair brush?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
HIV : The HIV virus is transmitted by close sexual contact with an infected person,receiving blood transfusions that have been contaminated, being in contact with bodily fluids that are contaminated with the virus and touch your open skin wound or mucous membranes. In short casual contact through a hairbrush should not transmit the virus.
