So you saw a needle on the floor and you think it stuck you. Guess what it didn't, how could it?
I never said a needle stick was not a risk, I said that I think you were never stuck by a needle.

Ok we saw a needle on the floor that stick me and your telling me its not a risk but meanwhile some of the posts say a hollow bore needle is a risk so thats not adding up..im just asking what are the risks from a hollow bore needle thats all
As I said I don't beleive you got stuck with a needle. It just doesn't add up, I think you felt something and assumed it was a needle.
Ok so your saying i didnt have a risk? But can i ask you one thing and i leave you alone from the needle that stick me it was hollow bore whats the difference between that and a regular needle? They say hollow bore is more risky im just a mother trying to learn if this horrire about to my kids i would know please just help vance im not asking you for anything else
I just don't see how a needle stuck you in the foot. I'm sorry but it just doesn't happen.
For people who have a risk a 3 month test is when you can obtain a conclusive test.
