Hello /sci/
I was at a festival the other day, and someone who apparently had AIDS, licked his finger and put it in my mouth for a brief moment, any experts out there that could advise mo on weather or not to be concerned.
I know this really should go on /adv/ but i figure this board is a tad more knowledgeable.

Fuck that i'd press charges after I beat the fuck out of them. That's assault...

How was the gay pride parade?

As far as I know there is no record of AIDS transmission via salvia. (Which is kind of a good thing, it means you don't have to wear a tongue condom.)

Cheers bro, just paranoia setting in.

>> No.3386631

if you dont have a cut or other opening in your mouth you dont have to worry, if you do, there is a -very- small chance you could have got it.

>> No.3386638

You're okay. There is about a 5% chance that you got it.

Don't worry about it. Like Josef said, there has never been a proven case of someone getting HIV via saliva (I think some family in Europe claimed to have all gotten it from sharing a toothbrush but that sounds really really dumb)

To ease your mind, even if you'd taken it in the pooper from him I think I saw on wikipedia once that it'd still only be like 1/100 odds you'd get HIV. (Pretty depressing that so many people have it with those odds when you think about it)

>> No.3386642

you're retarded

you'll have to swallow a gallon of his saliva to get even a possible transmission of aids. AIDS is not typically transmitted via saliva, unless it contains blood or semen.

>> No.3386653

>>3386638
5% is still pretty unnerving

Sue the festival for allowing it to happen.
That's the way America works, right?

>Is deep kissing a route of HIV transmission?
Deep or open-mouthed kissing is a very low risk activity in terms of HIV transmission. HIV is only present in saliva in very minute amounts, insufficient to cause infection with HIV.

There has been only one documented case of someone becoming infected with HIV through kissing; a result of exposure to infected blood during open-mouthed kissing. If you or your partner have blood in your mouth, you should avoid kissing until the bleeding stops.

Im a britfag

>> No.3386719

Not only is there a very low amount of the HIV virus in saliva, but in this case, it was also exposed to air, which reduces the likelyness you'l get it even more.

Also, its likely the guy who said he had AIDS didn't actually have AIDS.

>> No.3386727

Going back to science/math, you're almost surely not infected.
