HIV FROM CHIPOTLE

I was at Chipotle today and had a burrito. While ordering the cook wiped her nose/mouth with her gloves. She then touched my burrito before handing it off to the next person. It looked like she wiped her arm and not her gloves but say somehow blood or saliva got on the glove and the got onto my burrito. I ate the burrito ( who wouldn't they are so good ) when I got home about 15 mins later. The burrito was a little cold so I put it in the microwave for about 15 secs. Would the 15 mins and microwave be enough to deactivate HIV assuming it somehow got onto my burrito? Should I get tested or nothing to worry about? If no risk then why ?

You cannot get HIV like this.  You would have to have unprotected sex with someone, or share IV drugs.  That's the extent of it.

it it because once HIV leaves the body it is deactivated ?

You never had an exposure and don't need testing.
