Hello,
Your concern is genuine but answer to your question is no that is HIV doesn't get a transfer through nonliving objects as the virus once in contact with the air became dead immediately but the use of such devices can cause an increased risk of other infections like hepatitis b, and c etcetera. So better dont share these devices or sterilize them before using it.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Medhavi Agarwal
