Question

Is it it okay to swim in the same private pool as a person with HIV Positive???

Answer 1

Yes, no problem. HIV needs blood, s***n or saliva in a large enough quantity. Diluted in a pool? no chance.

Answer 2

HIV can only be transmitted through direct contact with bodily fluids and it can not live outside of the human body. A chlorinated pool has no chances whatsoever of harboring HIV as the chlorine would inable the virus in a matter of fractions of a second since the chlorine would bond to the stoppers on the HIV virus which make the virus clog up human white blood cells.

you'll only get HIV from them if you touch their siliva or blood.

Erica that was grouse, glad I am not eating. anyway to answer your question cholorine that the pools use is very strong and that helps to keep the pool clean. No you cannot get HIV from going in th pool, if that was thecase nobody would be going to the pool, and more peoplewould have it so you will be fine.

Answer 12

Yes, absolutely.

The virus cannot be transfered to you without intimate contact of some kind.

Without you having sexual, oral, or anal contact, or through blood, you wont contract the virus.

Answer 13

its just an unusual question

Answer 14

Not if it's Barrymore's pool.

Answer 15

Yes, it is completely safe.

There are three proven ways to aquire HIV:  Blood-to-blood contact, sexual contact, and mother to newborn.

There is absolutely no way for HIV transmission to occur in a swimming pool.  Even if the HIV positive person were to bleed into the pool water, the chlorine or other sanitizer kills the pathogen within a couple of seconds of contact to the water.  Even without any sanitizer, the HIV pathogen dies when outside the human body & the blood is diluted with water within a few seconds.

Answer 16

Yes it is.

Answer 17

You would be safe

Answer 18

It's fine you can only catch it through intimate contact or if their blood gets into a cut etc etc. In a swimming pool the chlorine which is a bleach should kill most germs and the HIV virus
