HIV is NOT transmitted by kissing nor is it transmitted by fingering.

fingering is not a risk...regardless of trivial nicks and cuts.

No Risk, in order to get infected HIV virus must enter blood stream, unless open cut is very recent and bleeding, there is no chance that virus can enter blood stream.

Also note that HIV virus does not survive long when exposed to air..

Cheers :)
