Staying with an old dear in Eastcote (on contract) and she has let a second room to another guy. He works in the local hairdressers.
My question is this, I have noticed that his soap touches mine in the soap dish and and was wondering if AIDS can be transmitted via a soapdish sort of contact mechanism.
Sensible answers only please

Only if he wanks into the soap dish

Only if he wanks into the soap dish

And then immediately afterwards you use the soap to 'clean' inside your gary.

So it's in the saliva as well?.....

So if I'm on a crowded tube train and Mr (or Mrs or Ms) Aids carrier sneezes... is there a risk?

If you have an open wound, and some of the saliva gets in there - maybe.

If they do it continually for around 10 hours and you ingest about a litre of saliva - maybe.

I would suggest none of these things should be done on a tube or train.

Firstly, how do you know that he has AIDS? How do you know that he even has HIV?

I hope your post was a joke, all be it a sick one.

yes , if he/she has bleeding gums also
HIV is found in saliva, but in quantities too small to infect someone

I thought the risk from saliva was theoretical - i.e. could possibly happen but never has.
