I have read the CDC report about HIV in the environment and I understand that no transmission of HIV due to environmental contact. I also understand that if infected body fluid gets into a mucous membrane transmission may occur.
Please consider this situation: I am female. I went to the bathroom at work, a single toilet bathroom. I turned on the light as I entered, proceeded to urinate + wipe, wash hands, etc. As I was leaving the bathroom I turned off the light. As I did this I realized there was blood smeared on the light plate around the 2nd switch that controls the fan. I immediately went and used hand sanitizer, alcohol. I felt a bit nervous so I went back and looked at the plate and didn’t see any blood on the actual switches where I would have touched. And I can’t be sure I didn’t get blood on my hand. I am concerned I might have had blood on my hand when I touched my female mucous membrane. I did touch my hair, and may have rubbed my eye also.
Now! Is this considered environmental contact? Could I be at risk or is the virus really just limited to unprotected sexual transmission, transmission from mother to child, and sharing of works? Thank you for your time and clearing up my confusion. Any comments would be welcome.
