risks from sharing a note to snort cocaine

Hi, just wondering what the risk is of contracting hepatitis fom a bank note whilst sniffing cocaine. I recentlt went through a stupid phase and used cocaine. My friend whouses regularly passed me a bank note to use. Me and my partner looked at the bank note and there were no traces of blood. This was two months ago

Sharing drug paraphernalia as you described is classed as  a risk.... Obviously the lining of the nostrils are classed as a mucous membrane, so sharing a rolled note with someone who is infected, which would have to have blood on it maybe a  risk if the blood absorbs into your blood stream......
