A member asked:
Chances of hep c after meeting w/c client. didn't notice fluid but what if i touched fluid then touched mucous membrane. unsure if i used sanitizer?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Unlikely: You would get it the same way that you would get hep B. You could be checked for it by having a blood test (for Hep C antigen, not antibody by PCR) and lucky for you even in the very low probability event that you really did contract hep C there is a cure for it today. Unfortunately Gilead Scieces is selling it for $1,000/pill x 90 days. Isn't capitalism wonderful?
