walking barefoot in the gyw changing room

I walked barefoot in the changing room and shower of the gym in shangai where I was for business. I had no slippers on me. I had blisters under my feet. I stepped into a blood on the floor by mistake. I'm worried if this blood was HIV+ and maybe went trough my blister and infected me. Please ***** me I'm worried. Thanks

For other STD,s,thats true but not for hiv,because as we explained before,The hiv virus is unable to survive outside its living host and therefore is unable to infect.Where ever you read this information its incorrect.

One more question. I was foolingwith a friend of mine. He eiaculated and some of his sperm ended up on my fingers. Stupidily 5 minures later I put one finger in my mouth to turn him on. Can I be infected having put the finger with his sperm 5 minuter after he ejaculated? Stupid thing I did

HIV is unable to reproduce outside its living host (unlike many bacteria or fungi, which may do so under suitable conditions), except under laboratory conditions; therefore, it does not spread or maintain infectiousness outside its host.

You were never at risk of contracting HIV.
