Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
If there is no high risk fluid there is there any chance for HIV infection?
A
yes
B
no
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -While the risk of contracting HIV from external fluids is low, the risk is high when sharing equipment to inject drugs, such as needles and syringes. The reason for this is that the person may inject blood that contains HIV directly into their bloodstream.

Detailed explanation-2: -You can only get HIV by coming into direct contact with certain body fluids from a person with HIV who has a detectable viral load. These fluids are: Blood. Semen (cum) and pre-seminal fluid (pre-cum)

Detailed explanation-3: -Unprotected sexual exposure to the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) doesn’t necessary lead to infection. In fact, some studies have gone as far as to saying that successful HIV-1 transmission occurs only one out of 1, 000 times.

Detailed explanation-4: -There is little to no risk of getting or transmitting HIV from oral sex. Sexual activities that don’t involve contact with body fluids (semen, vaginal fluid, or blood) carry no risk of HIV transmission.
