A member asked:
Can you get hiv when getting a shot if the doc uses the same gloves that she used for a previous patient?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Low risk: Needles are never reused. Gloves are barriers to prevent contact with blood and other secretions. You are at very low risk to get HIV from the doctors gloves. Feel good!
