Needle exposure

Hi Everyone,

I am very tensed for my exposure.Please give some thoughts.

If a used needle is used to draw blood , what is the risk for HIHV.

It happened to me yesterday...

the syringe was in air for 5-10 minutes..

NOBODY used a "used needle" to draw your blood ! !

May I know the reason why are you trying to ban me...

You could  answer my question instead..

dont worry...the is NO REASON for someone to reuse a needle..
plus it is an instinctive action to immediately discard needle after use...because people who draw blood do it a million times..so discarding needle is done even without thinking
so DONT WORRY..get MARRIED..invite me lol
