Oral exposure to HIV is low risk. Anyway, there is no realistic chance of blood on the fruit anyway. This is your anxiety disorder speaking. It sounds like it might be severe enough to need counseling or other professional attention. But do your best to stop worrying about HIV or any other virus in this situation.

I would think you are in no danger of infection via the route you describe. Of greater concern is how your anxiety is adversely affecting your life style. Important that you be evaluated by a mental health practitioner, a Psychiatrist, before your mental illness cripples you.
