Oral transmission of HIV:
1. at least in one case that was described by Dr. Pokrovskij, there
were documented cracks on mother's nipples and "deep ulcers" in baby's
mouth (from Russian language source)
2. "
The main protective mechanism of saliva is reported to be inactivation
of HIV-transmitting leukocytes by its unique hypotonicity; however,
the successful oral transmission of HIV by seminal fluid and milk is
unexplained.

Definitely, more research (both literature review and academic
studies) on this subject is needed

Baby to mother transmission of HIV
Hi!
What an interesting topic. Alia, I was very taken aback to read this
line
on your post.
How would this be medically possible, I´m wondering? First, a baby
that is
infected and an uninfected mother means that baby either had a blood
transfussion or blood/semen/vaginal fluids/breastmilk interchange
with
someone who was infected, other than the mother. Then the baby would
have
to have enough viral load to be infectious, and then have a wound in
his
mouth while mother had a wound on her nipple and pass the virus on to
her... right? HIV is not transmitted thru saliva. Rarely, it has been
transmitted by deep, open-mouth kissing if both partners have sores
or
bleeding gums and blood from the HIV-positive partner gets into the
bloodstream of the HIV-negative partner (CDC).
Just wondering...
Kika
