else eats that they become infected.

Salivia, Urine, Sweat, Tears do not have a high concentration of the virus. But if he has an open sore in his mouth and spits it back on the plate and the other person eats it and they have a sore in their mouth then there is a slight probabilty. You have to be careful around people with HIV. You can not come into contact with any blood or any semen or vaginal secretions. So on the safe side do not share food or anything that comes in such close contact with their body.. Not being rude to them but keeping yourself safe.

The science behind this states that this is not true. You would have to ingest gallons of HIV+ saliva to have a chance to catch the disease. Not probable with some food spit out of someone's mouth. So, unless they had bleeding gums, bled on the food, spit it into your mouth (because HIV dies quite rapidly outside of a human host), & the blood entered a cut in your body before the enzymes in your saliva destroyed it... You can not catch HIV from eating after someone.
The true question would be why you are eating food that anyone had already chewed & spit out.
A) They spit it out for a reason (possibly taste) &
B) That is just disgusting. You may have more problems than HIV can cause.

well it might be a good idea to do more research on the issue.
From what I am aware of the only way that you can acquire HIV is through sexual transmission or from a blood transfusion or needles that you both use.
Some times we all need more advise on how these diseases are transmitted. However I doubt that you would want to eat something that someone spit on anyhow.
I wouldn't.
I know that you can drink from the same glass and that someone that is infected with HIV that is respectful would never do that.
They are sick with an illness but it doesn't affect their brain.
All people should be treated equally. I feel.
Good luck and let me know if you have further info on it.

I think Health organisations should start a new campaign with the new slogan: Do Not Eat Food That an HIV Has Just Spit!
what a stupid disgusting question?

First of all, why would someone eat food that someone else just spat out? Second, HIV can't survive outside the body for very long and the concentrations in saliva are very low. It isn't something you can contract through French kissing, so there really wouldn't be any way to contract it that way.

No. HIV isn't passed thru saliva. Unless they have some kind of bloody sore in their mouth & they spit out blood with the food.

You sound paranoid. No, you're at no hazard. perhaps a million in a million billion. The HIV virus would not stay outdoors OF A HUMAN HOST!!! no person looks to accomplish that. yet greater importantly in case you got here across blood everywhere on your meal why might you nevertheless devour it?

they would have to spit two gallons of saliva for that to be true and then i hope you wouldn't eat the food still

Nope, they are very badly informed.
HIV is NOT viable in saliva.

absolutely not.
AIDS spread through body fluid.
eg, through sex.
not through saliva
