im not sure if its infected but you cant be too sure.

ok heres the deal. i went to a college football game and one of the players gave me their sleeve. it had blood on it and i didnt realize it. im just wondering if hiv/aids can be transmitted like germs; like say i accidentally touched the blood spot, and then touched my eyes or mouth.Health Question & Answer


Answers:
HIV dies within a few minutes once it is outside the body, exposed to air. If the blood was dried, there was NO WAY that you could have been infected.Health Question & Answer

No you won't get infected because the blood is already dried meaning that the blood has been exposed to the enviroment for a period of time. The HIV cannot survive in the enivroment that is exposed to the air because being a virus, it needs cells for its reproduction. So you should be fine because the HIV is inactivated.Health Question & Answer

If you had no injury in the skin than you should not worry about it. HIV can not be transmitted through intact skin. If there was injury to the skin then you have to be careful. Health Question & Answer
