syringe question
i got my blood test on 23 rd may and the guy couldn't get only 1 ml blood out of my vein he used dispovan syringe made locally in India.
i have heard stories that 30 percent of syringes in India are repacked used syringes .
If the syringe was repacked used syringe on a hiv person and i used it for blood draw am i at risk?
i guess it would take one or two days minimum to repack and bring in market.
can virus stay alive for that much time in needle of syringe?
and when can i test for hiv ?
