pap test and blood

At a doctors appointment for a pap test I noticed my doctor had blood on his shirt. Im guessing it was dry because it wasnt from me. If it was HIV blood or hep blood could it cause infection to me if soem how his shirt touched me?? I know its a weird question but I cant help but wonder :)
