A member asked:

If blood is outside the body of a infected person like on a shoe is there still a risk of catching hiv/hepc if you touch the blood ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Depends: If there are no open sores on the skin where you touched the blood and you washed your hands promptly, there is minimal risk.
