A member asked:
Could i have hiv, hepatitis (a/b/c), or any other std through my hands by touching an inanimate object?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Low likelyhood: It is not very clear regarding what kind of inanimate object and how long it has been lost. Hepatitis a still a possibility, hiv/hepatitisb/c has lower likelyhood. Good luck!
