Stepping on a used condom
Dear Sirs,
Last night when I checked into my Hotel room at 6pm and was unpacking my bag, I stepped onto a used condom that was under the edge of the bed....
I washed my foot with warm water immediately and dried my foot, there are no cracks or cuts on my foot.
Is there any chance of contracting HIV from such a instance?
Thankyou and regards.
Andrew
