A member asked:

I kissed (french) one of my female friends yesterday. if she has hiv, is there any chance to get infected?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not from a kiss: Even "kissing of more than filial intensity" won't transmit hiv. It can give you infectious mono, cytomegalovirus, and gonorrhea as applicable. If things are to go farther, and she's really your friend, both of you hustle down and get your health status checked.
