A member asked:
Nurse had healing cuts on fingers.drew my blood w/o gloves.top concern is her grabbing tissue, putting it on my bleeding.should ask her to test 4 hiv?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: This is not an issue of tissue. Transmission of HIV in this fashion would be close to impossible (i always say that nothing is impossible). Stay away from unprotected sex, needle sharing, tissue transplantation and you will not get HIV disease. Good luck and best wishes.
