Does Vaginal Secretion Cause Hiv?
I had rubbed a dry vaginal secretion in am woman's underwear with a hair line dry old and non bleeding cut in my finger and the secretion was more than 10 minutes old. I know that HIV is a fragile virus and can not survive more than 2 minutes out side human body. The underwear was kept under her clothes. Can I get infected with HIV.

Hi
I admire you for positive outlook.
I guess and understand your concern.
There are very very less chances of getting infection if women has HIV positive.
But if she does not have HIV then no need to worry.
So do not worry
Relax.
Thanx
