RE USED CONDOM AFTER FINGERING

hello doctor i have had another doubtful encounter with a prostitute and have been wondering if you could clarify my risk. i was fingering her using a condom and then in my stupidity allowed her to use the same condom for protected vaginal sex. is there a risk of hiv from this? what if the side that touched her vaginal fluids was the side that touched my bare penis during the "protected" insertive sex? thank you

it sorta makes sense Teak but how quickly would the virus have to be exposed to air to become not infectious?

HIV is unable to reproduce outside its living host (unlike many bacteria or fungi, which may do so under suitable conditions), except under laboratory conditions; therefore, it does not spread or maintain infectiousness outside its host.

HIV is transmitted by;
Unprotected penetrative anal and/or vaginal sex
Sharing works with other IV drug users
