HIV via vibrator
Here is my question: About a week ago me and a girlfriend shared a vibrator but i don't know her HIV status and I am afraid to ask her because she might get the wrong idea. Is sharing a vibrator a risk of HIV transsmision?
Best Answer
It makes no difference because that vibrator has been exposed to air.The outer layer of the viral particles become damaged and can't latch onto the t--cells.You're safe
No because the mouth contains dozens of different proteins and enzymes that inhibit HIV transmission.The nose is not a vagina or anus obviously and can't be infected by HIV because it's constantly taking in air.
Oral sex is not a risk as far as HIV is concerned. This has been supported by the experts on both the HIV community and the Experts forum.
Oh i am sry my LAST question:
If the mouth and the nose are considered as the inside of the human body, wouldn' t be possible to contract HIV if vaginal fluids or sperm got inside the mouth or the nose with their moucus membranes damaged (cut), bleeding?

I work with HIV specialists.I know all the modes of HIV transmission and sharing vibrators is not one of them.
You have been very helpful thank you so much!!!

Yes,thats all it takes and there is hardly any virus in vaginal fluids anyway.You had no risk.Relax
oh and last questions:
1) Are fingers considered as an enviromental surface?
2) Are the insides of a mouth and nose considered insides of the body?
Thanks

NO ONE has ever contracted hiv from sharing a vibrator.
why?
hiv is not transmitted through inanimate objects. once exposed to air, it becomes unable to infect.
transmission is from...
unprotected vaginal / anal intercourse
sharing iv drug works
mother to child
you had NO risk

No risk--HIV is not transmitted via vibrators because HIV becomes inactive once exposed to air and therefore unable to infect you.
