A member asked:

Can i get hepatitis c from scratching myself on a metal toilet paper dispenser in a public bathroom? my concern is if someone did the same thing prior

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No: This is not a way you are going to transmit HepC. There would have to be fresh blood or serum on the metal, and you would have to have an open wound with the contact. No worries about infection with what you are stating.
