Sure, but...: The answer to "Is there any chance of this happening..." is almost always YES. That's life. But's as they say, "Don't sweat the small stuff." Only worry about things that are somewhat likely to happen. Otherwise, you'll be standing on the sidewalk forever, never daring to cross the street. In real life, there is essentially no way a person will catch HIV in the scenario described in this question.
