Move on there is nothing more to explain, you've posted in the expert forum, this forum and AidsMeds.
I am sorry for my question - but I would appreciate if anyone could help me understand why this would not be an exposure if the assistant's gloves had blood on them? I am a very analytical person and I am trying to get over this, but it is hard for me to do so without understanding why exactly this would not expose me (assuming the gloves had blood on them)? I would really appreciate it if someone could explain it to me. Sorry again, I promise to stop posting!

Hi Teak, Sorry to be annoying, but can you please explain why? I am struggling to understand. There was probably only 15 seconds between the time the assistant could have touched the other patient's blood and then touched my open would that had just been stitched up? Isn't that blood to blood exposure with a deep wound?
No means no and like you were told in the Expert Forum you never had an exposure.
Hi Teak, Sorry can you please explain what you mean by "No"? Thank you!
