HIV is instantly inactivated in air so it can't infect, otherwise all of America would be infected from toilets, workplace cuts and sporting events. You haven't read of anyone getting it this way because it doesn't happen and it doesn't happen because it can''t happen.
It would be front page news if some baby got it in a public changing room or toilet or playground equipment.
Zero risk for you friend.

Thanks for quick reply....but I think blood droplet from mouth takes less time unlike changing room , toilet etc....
Reread the first sentence. Until you locate a news story that backs up your new science idea of transmission, then there is nothing left to say, since HIV science I quoted is 40 years old.
Thanks
