See the warning at the top of this forum:  'Questions that duplicate other frequent ones, for which abundant replies exist, and that have little educational value for other forum users, will be DELETED WITHOUT RESPONSE.  YOUR PAYMENT WILL NOT BE REFUNDED.  The most common examples of such questions are those about low risk exposures to HIV, such as oral sex, condom- protected intercourse, hand-to-genital exposure, and **nonsexual contact with possibly infected blood or body fluids**.

No risk.  You do not need testing.  Most infected people have positive tests within 5 weeks.

No follow-up comments/questions, please.

Non-risks: Going to the beauticians.
