Common Questions and Answers about Hiv symptoms in men cdc
hiv
HIV is inactivated in saliva, HIV is inactivated in air. Those are 2 reasons you and everyone else in 40 year HIV history can't have HIV from oral sex despite cuts, chapped lips etc. So you wasted your time testing.
Symptoms aren't used to diagnose HIV and you have no medical training, so it is not surprising that you are puzzled trying to self-diagnose what a test has proven you don't have.
Everyone gets flu but few have HIV.

According to the CDC in 2009 there were 10,098 white men who contracted HIV in the United States. They go on to say that of those new HIV+ men that 79% contracted the disease from male to male sexual contact.
So that would leave 2,121 white men who contracted the virus through other means that M2M contact in 2009. Assuming that at least some of those remaining males contracted the disease via IV drug use....
Three weeks ago I had unprotected insertive anal sex with a CSW. He was very clean and in an upscale area assured me he very recently tested negative, but I was surprised he seemed to encourage me to go bareback after I told him I was clean. It lasted for less than 2 min. It's not something I would normally do and was caught in the moment with no common sense. I will never do that again. I have no early symptoms. CDC reports the risk at 6.

(If all gay men were as careful to avoid HIV as you are, HIV would never have taken hold among gay men, and would gradually go away.) Oral sex is inherently safe. Can I absolutely guarantee that infection couldn't occur through an open wound in the mouth? No, of course not. Does it occur with measurable frequency? Obviously not.
According to the CDC, roughly 5,000 men in 34 states in the US contracted HIV via high-risk heterosexual contact.
This is concerning.
I mean, Dr. H has said that in his 30 years of working in a busy std clinic, he's never seen a single case of a male contracting hiv from a single vaginal exposure. How can this be in thousands of straight, non-drug using men contract the virus yearly here in the US.

Hi
Trying to find the risk from unprotected anal sex (top) it seems that there are many opinions in different sites. The CDC estimates that the risk for the insertive partner is 1 to 1666 and I imagine that the CDC they are very cautious to what they say. In other sites i found that the risk it can be 1 to 160 for uncircumcised men to 1 to 1600. I also read at the CDC that circumcised men maybe have less risk. May I have your opinion on this matter.
The most quoted figure is from CDC, which published a paper that estimated that if a woman has HIV, the transmission risk to a male partner by vaginal intercourse averages once for every 2,000 exposures. Equally important, HIV remains more rare in women (in the US and western Europe) than many people assume. Even among the most risky women, such as brothel workers, the vast majority to not have HIV.

To my knowledge there are no data in the US, and probably none in Canada, that would suggest an increased risk of HIV in Chinese sex workers compared with other national origins. So their origins or ethnicity do not change my opinion or advice.
You have already been told the answer to the question about HIV antibody test results at 4 weeks. 90-95% of newly infected people have positive results at that time.
Most experts believe a few such transmissions have occurred, but only a very few in the 30 years of the known HIV epidemic in gay men. And this is only with known infected partners. Statistically, it is most likely your partner doesn't have HIV; even among the most sexually active gay men, most aren't infected.
