I'm pregnant and i was having my blood drawn today. the nurse dropped her gloves on the floor and picked them up and used them. can i get hiv or other?

Gloves: Nurse should have put on new gloves. Ones on the floor should have been discarded after you left. Talk to her boss about chances of cross-contamination.
