The simple answers is no. From sweat like yummymummy said. You would have to come in contacts with buckets among buckets of sweat to be close to catchimg it, same with kissing saliva

I'm pretty sure you can't get it through sweat, unless you come in to contact with a VERY large amount, and I mean LARGE, of sweat. It's the same with kissing.

I should ahve said in my reply below, that an open wound can mean the tiniest cut that you don't know you have. Which is why unprotected sex isn't safe.

It is passed between people by bodily fluids getting into an open wound. Sweat doesn't count, it's just salty water.

No you can not catch nothing by sweat. Only way you can catch hiv and aids is by having sex, oral sex, spit, if you have an open cut and touch blood. And in order to get in std you have to have sex with someone who has it

HIV is infectious and is usually passed from person to person by unprotected sex, sharing injection equipment or from a pregnant mother to her baby. Not from sweat!
