Protected sex. Think about that for a moment. Protected sex. Why do you believe people might call it that? I do not say this to be insulting, only to point out a fundamental truth. You had protected sex, you wore a condom. Which means, you were protected against a whole host of STIs, including but not limited to HIV.

In short, you do not have much to worry about, certainly not HIV.

Make sense?
