HIV from snorting cocaine?
Hey guys,
I've kinda been on and off with cocaine for about a year now but did it again at a new years party. As far as i know, the 2 of us using never shared straws but we definitely shared the same plate it was snorted off. If there was blood present on the surface would i be at risk of contracting hiv or hep c?. I had a slightly infected ingrown hair in one of my nostrils but i used the opposite nostril to sniff
Cheers for your time and effort

Only non-sex risk is sharing needles that you inject with, so time to move on from HIV fears.

Cheers for your time and patience. Would this apply even if i snorted a few seconds after the blood appeared?
Reread about the only because there is no sense coming up with "what-ifs" when you didn't needle.
So no then, cheers for your time again
So yes then** - grammar error sorry
