Hi XXXXXXX
Welcome.
I have gone through your query and do understand your concern.
But based on the information, you are not likely to be infected by HIV.
HIV is unable to reproduce outside its living host, except under laboratory conditions; therefore, it does not spread or maintain infectiousness outside its host.
You are good , do not worry.
I'll provide you here link also you can go through it. http://helpline.aidsvancouver.org/what-we-do/helpline/online/how-much-seconds-or-minutes-exactly-hiv-virus-remains-alive-outside-human.
