HIV Drug Question

Just a question.

If a IV drug user used a tea spoon to burn his/her drugs and put the needle on the spoon to fill the syringe, is this a risk for HIV if the person did not clean the spoon and someone else used the spoon to make a hot drink of tea or coffee? I know this is very strange but it is freaking me out.

No there is no risk. You can't contract HIV off of either situation.

Is there any risk to me if I touched HIV sperm without knowing? I mean when it is outside the body... If I touched it and rubbed my eyes, or eat some food would this be a risk if I had these fluid on my hands?
