hello-
just a curious question.  since the initial oubreak of hiv in 1981, how may people in total have contracted hiv through means of oral sex?  i have read in certain places that you can get hiv through oral sex, even through its really rare.

when you say reported cases, do you mean that it wasnt proven that they did not get hiv?

There are a few reported cases but zero have been verified. Neither doctor on this site has seen a convincing case of HIV transmission through oral sex in the literature.
