Under what circumstances? Having sex with them? Sharing a needle? Getting a blood transfusion with their blood? Kissing them? Living under the same roof?
All of those activities have different probabilities of passing infection. Further there are some people who seem naturally resistant to being infected. Finally it matters about the person who is doing the infecting - what their viral load is. The higher the viral load the better the chance of infecting others.
Okay, I had to go back to your other questions to figure this out. You had unprotected sex with a person who had known HIV or just a random person? Are you male or female? Was your partner male or female? Vaginal, oral or anal?
If it was heterosexual, unprotected, vaginal sex with a person who was not known to have HIV, you are a male and she female - THEN the chances that she was HIV+ are pretty small and the chances that she infected you, if she was, is pretty small. All said the chances of contracting HIV from a random person who is about college age, as a male is about 1 in 14,000 - roughly the risk of being involved in an air plane crash every time you fly commercially.
Wrap your member next time. Get tested again at six months and stop worrying already.

HIV is transmitted through an exchange of blood products from an HIV positive person to an HIV negative person.
you can't get infected with HIV (which usually leads to AIDS) from touching, hugging, being served dinner by or standing next to a person with HIV/AIDS.
Sexual transmission is the most common...there are many factors that influence the likelihood that the virus will be transmitted. Women are more likely to contract it; anal sex creates opportunities for the virus to be passed, other health factors for both partners.
The answer in short is: don't worry about getting AIDS from a co-worker, neighbor, family member etc. Always use a condom or other barrier that will prevent the exchange of fluids during sex. Don't take for granted that you can trust partners' sexual pasts.
Oh, and get tested.

I believe Doxycycl and merely pick to operate to his remark below: "finally, there are different routes of spreading HIV that are extra useful - in certain, sharing needles used for injection drugs. This change route facilitates HIV out plenty". also many human beings have decreased in length HIV/Aids from Blood Transfusions. it really is actual extra straightforward than one thinks yet is under no circumstances publicized. also some human beings have self belief that there will be many different situations at the same time as the immune equipment is already low that a try might want to produce a pretend constructive result, and previous vaccinations can produce a pretend constructive result! It does problem me somewhat that once someone is clinically determined with HIV, they're at contemporary blamed for his or her habit, at the same time as it perhaps not some thing to do with sex in any respect!

Well it depends on what activities was performed with the person who is infected with the Virus. If you were not safe and bodily fluids were exchanged then yes the probability is very high. You can have protected sex with some who is HIV positive. Now if Blood was exchanged same as the bodily fluids even if you have oral sex and you have a cut even the slightest abrasion can be dangerous. If you are sexually active I would suggest you go and get tested immediately. Good luck hon.

It's not 100%, but it's at least 98%.

depends on various factors...it's transmitted more easy to women. The viral load of your partner at the time of sex is a factor. Just don't have unprotected sex.

Well, i hope that this has not happened to you but... it depends on how and which body fluids where exchanged. If it was blood, semen, or vaginal fluids. You can go to http://health.yahoo.com/topic/hiv/ and check it out it has facts, treatment, symptoms, etc. Please be careful if you are talking about yourself. Please keep yourself safe.

If your having regular sex, then the chance are less than one percent to get it. If there is blood involve 100%, also having anal sex has higher chance of getting HIV.
Always use condom, when you have sex, it will reduce your chance of getting STDs
