Possibility of HIV infection while having hair cut
Hi, I got a haircut before 2 weeks. During the process, the barber cut on my neck with razor. I know the blade used was brand new. Immediately after the cut, the barber applied a piece of alum ( which he should have used on other customers before 5 to 10 minutes). After that there was a bleeding too. My concern is that is there possibility of HIV infection to me. Please help me.

What Vance said. You cannot get HIV from environmental surfaces, even if that surface did come in contact with a person's infectious fluids. Doesn't happen.
