My CD4 is 400, can I transmit HIV to my partner?
Answer
Thanks for getting in touch,
When it comes to transmission, or in fact not being able to transmit, what’s important is a person’s viral load, not their CD4 count. Do you know what your viral load is? If its less than 50 then you cannot transmit HIV when having sex without a condom. Please see Q’s 9 and 14 here:
