teak and other experts plz help

hi everyone,
i have read many times in this fourm and MH site that HIV doesn,t transmit from deep kissing,and befor teak has sayed that he has not seen or heard any record or case of HIV transmition by deep and open mouth kissing.but i was searching in CDC and i found this:

:http://www.cdc.gov/hiv/resources/qa/qa17.htm
Open-Mouth Kissing:

Open-mouth kissing is considered a very low-risk activity for the transmission of HIV. However, prolonged open-mouth kissing could damage the mouth or lips and allow HIV to pass from an infected person to a partner and then enter the body through cuts or sores in the mouth. Because of this possible risk, the CDC recommends against open-mouth kissing with an infected partner.

One case suggests that a woman became infected with HIV from her sex partner through exposure to contaminated blood during open-mouth kissing.

For more information refer to the July 11, 1997, Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report “Transmission of HIV Possibly Associated with Exposure of Mucous Membrane to Contaminated Blood”.

There has NEVER been anyone contracting HIV from kissing. PERIOD..and you aren't going to make history and be the first. Look at the dates before you go posting incorrect and outdated information.
