- HIV Risk Behaviors
The risk of getting HIV varies widely depending on the type of exposure or behavior (such as sharing needles or having sex without a condom). Some exposures to HIV carry a much higher risk of transmission than other exposures.
This page therefore lists a number of estimates (or guesstimates) of the likelihood of infection per exposure for specific activities and incidents. The figures are drawn from the most useful cohort studies and meta-analyses (which pool the data from as many studies as possible).
These include: hand hygiene; use of gloves, gown, mask, eye protection or face shield, depending on the anticipated exposure; and safe injection practices.
This section provides the state of the science regarding estimates from the current scientific literature for HIV risk behaviors, effective prevention strategies, and factors that increase HIV risk.
An impermeable mask to cover mouth and nose. A cap or hood to cover all the hair on the head and face. A clean pair of shoes or clean shoe-covers. Caps, gowns and masks are worn to decrease the risk of patient exposure to contamination or infection from the surgical team.
Choosing to use protective factors (such as condoms, pre-exposure prophylaxis or PrEP, and antiretroviral therapy, or ART) can lower or eliminate the HIV risk for each sex act. This tool provides information on how much each protective factor reduces HIV risk.
