HIV is spread through the exchange of body fluids. Blood and semen are the most infectious fluids. In order to become infected, you need to get an infected person’s body fluids onto a mucous membrane or directly into your bloodstream (unbroken skin is an effective barrier against infection, so getting body fluids on your skin is generally not considered a significant risk). Almost all infections can be traced to sexual contact, sharing needles, or blood transfusions. HIV cannot be spread through casual contact — you can’t get it from a toilet seat, you can’t get it from touching an infected person, you can’t get it from sharing food with or drinking from the same glass as an infected person. In answer to your question, there have been no instances of HIV being transmitted through “smooch,” or kissing, recorded. You cannot get HIV/AIDS from this activity.
