Hello Docs, can HIV transmit through a cup of tea? I am suspicious through a freaking incident which was happened 2 days ago. I went to a road side coffee shop to have a good tea. When I got the bottle I found some red drops over the outer surface of the bottle. I don't know its exactly blood or extract of tea. But I drank it without any knowledge. What if the tea maker had a cut and left his blood into my tea with or without his knowledge. I don't have any mouth cuts. But suppose if I had minor cuts inside mouth and mouth ulcer, is a single cup of tea responsible for HIV transmission. Please clear my doubt. Is there any reported case. I am freaking out for the last two days and couldn't concentrate on anything. Can't believe any one except you doctors are the real god here. Pls help me docs.
