Can a person who has been exposed to hiv but has been testing negative with the more advanced testing techniques still transmit hiv?

Abvously not, if you don't have the disease, there's no way you can give something you don't have. Also you contract hiv from blood, semen, vaginal fluids, and breast milk, not by touching and kissing.

Tamrader. Sometimes you can have hiv for quite some time before testing postive. So, if it hasn't been very long since you were exposed, you should be very careful. Well, you should use protection and be careful anyway, but if you are not 100% sure that you are not infected, then I would be extra careful. Wait a couple of months and get tested again.
