Chance of infection

I had  sex with an unknown person (call girl in Bangkok). The condom broke and I realised it after ejaculation. What is the chance of me getting infcetd and what steps to take now? I had posed the question earlier but did not get a direct reply perhaps because my question was also not direct

Prevalence of HIV in prostitutes in Thailand has decreased substantially in recent years, it is now less than 5%.

Your risk is no higher than 1 in 40,000.

Get tested for peace of mind; your results will be negative.

They say about 1/1000 and that's if the person is HIV positive, transmission does not often occur in single exposures such as this but it has of course happened before and you still must test.

You can test  at 6 weeks and if that test is negative a repeated test at 3 months post exposure will be conclusive. Not only should you test for HIV but also other STDs.
