Bleeding finger

Please can you help me. If someone purposely put a bleeding finger in vagina could this be an entry for hiv?

No - whether purposely or accidentally, a bleeding finger cannot transmit HIV.  Sexually, a penis MUST be inside of a vagina or anus, unprotected, in order to transmit HIV.  A finger is not a penis, even if it is bleeding.

Thank you curfew but why would blood  directly not infectt?
The wound would have to be of sufficient magnitude that it would require medical attention.  No one with a wound requiring medical attention is going to be sticking that finger in a vagina.
