That's correct.Absolutely zero risk for HIV because the pin he pricked you with is not hollow bore.It's not like a syringe.

Not for HIV but it wouldn't hurt to test for the HCV.You should get your friend to pay for it.

I'm 110% sure you had no HIV risk but if one of those people had the HCV then it might be a concern.
