your risk for contracting Hepatitis C this way is 0% so don't worry. we'd have an epidemic on our hands if it was transmitted that easily.

best wishes.

You are worrying needlessly!  Unless you had an open wound and were bleeding, and there was a transfer of blood you cannot get hepC.  

You said ther was no blood on your shirt.  If ther was no blood, there is nothing to worry about!

Relax and, you might think about going to the Anxiety Forum for help with worrying too much.

Good luck

Hi

We get a few folks who come to the different forums because they have anxiety about catching illnesses. Sadly they are totally serious. They live life in fear of contracting all kinds of illnesses.
