Saliva has not been identified as capable of transmitting HIV. HIV cannot survive in saliva because it contains enzymes that break down the virus. However, HIV can still be present in blood that may be present in saliva, so it is still important to exercise caution and practice safe sex. Semen, vaginal secretions, and breast milk can all transmit HIV because they may contain infected white blood cells or the virus itself.
