Ok...I appreciate all of your responses. Dr. HHH, I would be grateful for a reply from you as well, just to confirm what the others have said.
1. No
2. Tattoo ink is not reused on other people and the answer is NO.
3. Tattoo parlors use sterile needles on each customer. So the answer is NO.
4. No
5. You don't need to test you were never at risk.
Don't ask anymore questions on tattooing. If you can't get over it. Don't ever get another tattoo.
Hi there,
You are not at risk. No test is needed.
Cheers!
There was 0 risk here and it's never been known to happen, so why would you worry?
I understand that there has never been a documented case, but based on the factors that I have outlined, am I at any risk? Do I have anything to worry about?
according to the cdc...there has never been a documented case of someone getting hiv from a tattoo.
