HIV risk with razor ?

HIV risk with razor ?

Hello, just today I went to the barber to get my hair cut. He was doing the sides with the razor and on the back of my head. He made me bleed. He had took the razor from a desk, that he had used before on a client 10 minutes before. It was a foldable razor. So what are the chances that he used the same razor ?  And the possible HIV transmission , is it present ? Thank you.

NO RISK...

hiv is not transmitted from environmental surfaces and/or inanimate objects.

"even if" the person before you had hiv..."even if" the barber cut him..."even if" there was blood on the blade...you were not at risk.

hiv becomes inactive when exposed to air.  at this point it is rendered incapable of infecting.
