From what you know or have heard, please indicate if HIV – the virus associated with AIDS – is transmitted or passed on to another person by kissing a person who is infected with HIV/AIDS on the lips.

Kissing, in almost all circumstances, has no risk of HIV transmission. However, kissing with the exchange of blood (when there are bleeding cuts, open sores, or ulcers present in the mouth) can still carry a low risk for HIV transmission.
