Increasingly we are talking about embracing an identity where we are openly living, without shame, not just as people with HIV but, crucially, as people with an undetectable virus. And yet itâs important to remember that itâs still possible â however unlikely â to transmit HIV even with an undetectable viral load. Though the personâs blood may contain minuscule amounts of the virus, it may still exist in other bodily fluids, like semen or vaginal or rectal fluids.
HIV cannot penetrate unbroken skin. HIV is transmitted through direct exchange of body fluids. Sexual intercourse is the most common mode of transmission. Blood to blood contact, such as through sharing needles for intravenous injection or blood transfusion can also transmit HIV.
