Hysteria surrounding the HIV+ fluids in an open wound scenario

by gambol2034, Nov 09, 2009 11:56AM
Where did this possible scenario originate? Has anyone ever contracted HIV by having an exposed wound and then getting blood into it? Why is it constantly repeated over and over again on sites? Can anyone post medical literature that shows a case where a person was infected like this?

You are here trying to prove a theroritical risk which can't be proven. Risks like this are theroritical, which means in theroy it can happen. But in theory you can be hit by a comet. A lot of sites use theoritical risk because they want to cover all bases. This site has the knowledge to dismiss theoritical infections because in 25+ years they have not happened.
