5. The only people at risk of becoming infected with HIV are gay men and drug users.

6. Nope! The people most at risk of becoming infected with HIV are people who have sex without a condom and/or people who share drug equipment. These can be and are people of any sexual orientation or gender - straight or gay, male or female.

7. You can get HIV through kissing, sharing utensils, or coming into contact with saliva.

8. Absolutely not true. Let’s get back to basics here
Absolutely not true. Let’s get back to basics here. HIV is not spread through saliva (or tears or sweat) - there has never been a documented case of HIV being spread through saliva. There are seven main fluids that can transmit HIV; semen, pre- ejaculate, breast milk, vaginal fluids, rectal fluids, and blood.

Well, not necessarily. When you get tested, there needs to be enough antibodies in the blood to pick up on a HIV infection, and this takes at least 5-8 weeks from the time when you get infected originally. To be 100% sure you’re HIV free, it’s recommended that you have another test three months after the first negative result, and avoid any risky sexual activities during that time.

11. You can’t become infected with HIV from having oral sex©

12. This isn’t entirely true
This isn’t entirely true. HIV can be spread through oral sex, so always use a condom if you're giving oral sex. Plus, don’t give oral sex if you have any cuts or sores in your mouth, or right after you've brushed your teeth.
