Risk?
Hello, thank you all for your help, I have a few questions to ask regarding possible risks. Please give me your advice on this.
1. I was picking up trash on a construction site the other day and I picked up a board with spit on it and it got on my fingers. I have some small cuts and some dry cracked skin. I was not bleeding at all. Is there a risk from this?
2. I had a new cut on my finger maybe 10 minutes old that was NOT bleeding anymore and I pumped gas and opened the door at the gas station etc touching things with that finger. I am not sure what is on the door handles etc. what is my risk from something like this?
3. Is kissing or sharing a drink or food proven to be a risk for hiv infection?
Thank you so much everyone.
