can u get HIV from eating a toe nail

1 answer

No, you cannot get HIV from eating a toenail. HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus) is transmitted through specific bodily fluids like blood, semen, vaginal fluids, rectal fluids, and breast milk. It is primarily transmitted through unprotected sexual contact, sharing needles, or from mother to child during childbirth or breastfeeding. Eating a toenail does not involve exposure to these fluids, and the virus cannot survive outside the human body for a significant period, so the risk of transmission in this manner is nonexistent. If you have concerns about HIV or other infections, it's best to consult a healthcare professional.
