Confused.

Thank you for your time.
My question might be stupid but it is driving me crazy. I recently used a public toilet and urinated in one of the wall-mounted cubicles. While urinating, the urine splashed back onto me. Am I at risk of HIV? The urine which splashed back onto me could have been mixed with another person's urine (who used the toilet before me). Am I at any risk of HIV?
thank you !

No risk for HIV infection. At all. Period.

If you think this was a risk, then you should educate yourself about HIV can and cannot be transmitted.

Thank you, even if there was prior urine in the toilet which might contain the virus?

You have been told that there was no risk of HIV infection. What you do with this information is up to you.
