Can you get HIV from eating fruit with an infected blood on it?

The risk of contracting HIV from eating fruit with infected blood on it is extremely low, close to zero. The virus is fragile and cannot survive for long outside the human body. Additionally, the stomach's acidic environment would destroy any remaining virus. To acquire HIV, the virus needs to enter the bloodstream directly, which is why transmission typically occurs through unprotected sex, sharing needles, or contact with infected bodily fluids.
