ok, thank you for your answer and Im sorry, its the anxiety.

Your concerns are irrational and I deleted your follow-up comments. THE CAPILLARY TUBE WAS NOT USED ON A PREVIOUS PATIENT; ASSUMING IT WAS IS PARANOID NONSENSE. AND EVEN IF THAT HAD BEEN DONE AND THE CAPILLARY TUBE WERE FILLED WITH ANOTHER PERSON'S BLOOD, IT WOULD NOT POSSIBLE TO CATCH HIV IN THIS MANNER. Any more of this and the entirel thrread will be deleted without futher reply. The same will happen if you try to repost the same question on the HIV forum. You have lost your chance.
Welcome. But unfortunately, this forum is limited to non-HIV STD questions; see the opening statement at the top of the forum page, and in the first (Disclaimer) message.
Nobody has ever been known to catch HIV during the blood test procedure, at least not since the mid-1980s, when once in a while in developing countries some blood might have been drawn through needles previously used on other patients.. The test kits are designed to prevent it and those designs are excellent. It is not logical that the test personnel would re-use the same capillary tube to test consecutive patients. And if for some reason that happened, absence of visible blood is a strong indication that there was insufficient contamination to transmit HIV.
You're not going to be the first person in the world in over 20 years to catch HIV through a testing procedure.
For any more information or discussion, you'll have to re-post your question in the HIV Prevention and Safe Sex forum. But I suggest you not spend the posting fee. The reply will be no different.
