No they aren't. The infection rate in the US is ~0.3% (there's no really reliable data on this, so the chance exists that the infection rate is somewhat higher). Assuming you're a man having sex with a straight woman who isn't a crackhead, the chance of your partner being infected is really slim.
If you don't have any stds yourself, and your dick isn't injured in any way, even the chance of getting the virus from fucking a hiv-positive person is slim.

Combine those two things, and it should be obvious that having unprotected sex with people whose status you don't know isn't all that dangerous.
