Can HIV infection occur if a condom breaks during sexual activity?

Patient's question:

A few days ago, I had sexual intercourse. In the middle, the condom broke. When I realized the condom broke, I immediately changed it. There were no wounds on the penis, and the vagina was dry. It might have been in contact for a moment, could it get stained with? Is the chance of infection high?

Doctor's answer:

General transmission of AIDS occurs through mother-to-child, sexual contact, and blood transmission. The body fluids of AIDS patients also contain only a very small amount of the virus, and transmission is generally not possible. The HIV virus dies quickly outside the human body.
Recommendation: If you are still concerned, you can get a blood test at the health station after six weeks. If the result is negative, it means you will not be infected.
