My 3 year old daughter had a small wound caused by a hair trimmer at a beauty saloon during her hair cut? A drop of blood came from 3 tiny spots where her neck hit the trimmer edge. I am afraid if she might have contracted HIV due to this.. if the person who used the trimmer before her had been an HIV positive person and had a wound caused by the same trimmer (I am sure those people don't steralize each time) what is the possibility of she having contracted the disease? Please help..I have lost my peace of mind after this

Your daughter was never at risk of contracting HIV.

Thanks a lot for your reply. I feel better after reading this. If the person who has used the trimmer had been an HIV positive person and even if he had a wound during his hair cut also you feel that there is no risk right? I am relieved
