A member asked:
Can saliva transmit hiv? is cold and fever symptoms of hiv?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Usually not: Saliva needs to be contaminated with blood in order to transmit hiv. Hiv virus is not found in saliva. Cold and fever symptoms may be the initial signs of hiv, but are usually passed off as another viral infection.
