This doesn't happen. Don't worry about it. Have only safe sex and do not share drug injection equipment with others. Those are the only precautions you need to prevent HIV.

No, HIV transmission is not possible in above mentioned scenario, HIV related anxiety is likely, talk to your doc about your fears.
