Highly unlikely: HIV is transmitted through broken skin, open wounds, but mostly through mucosal membranes which is not what above scenario describes. HIV does not survive on inanimate surfaces. A reliable site is cdc.gov in clarifying HIV transmission.

No: Visit this site for info on HIV transmission: https://www.cdc.gov/hiv/basics/transmission.html Have a healthy diet, exercise 30 minutes/day, drink plenty of water daily so your urine is mostly colorless, have safe sex, no tobacco alcohol weed or street drugs. For nutrition: http://www.choosemyplate.gov/. Get HPV and Covid vaccines. Wish you good health!
