A member asked:
Is there hiv in the hair of the infected person? and what if i swallow a hair do i get infected from the hair?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No. You would not get HIV infection from swallowing hair even from a person with HIV. Visit these sites for info: HIV transmission: http://www.avert.org/hiv-transmission-prevention/how-you-get-hiv?gclid=CK6P5szPq9ICFVY7gQodxYsGFw https://www.cdc.gov/hiv/basics/transmission.html
