You can not acquire the virus in that way.  There is no scope of transmission.

you know the answer to this based on your last thread.  AnxiousNoMore gave you the 3 ways that HIV could be transmitted in adults. you can continue to ask a variety of different scenarios, but your answer will always be the same. I'm assuming you're talking about you and your dad, which seems odd. personally, it would always be odd to me to share a toothbrush with anyone.

Well it's not that we share toothbrush  but we have are toothbrush in the same place and i accidently took hes and started brushing my teeth for about 20 seconds then I noticed I was using hes. I read an article that you should not share toothbrushes or razors with anyone that has HIV that's why I a little worried
the only info you should read are the answers previously given.  you can read anything online,  but our info comes from expert doctors. do not share needles, properly use condoms and you can protect yourself from HIV.
