All good reasons. The good thing is that mosquitoes just don’t. If they did we’d be in lots of trouble. I would think more about viruses such as hep B which are more infectious than HIV. Truth is that HIV transmission is not so efficient. Hence why we have discordant couples. Granted, blood contact is a high risk event, but even sexually, some have opined that it is easier to get pregnant than to get HIV. But, would you chance it?
