Dr. likely correct: No worries unless a person has truly bad luck. President Franklin D. Roosevelt said in 1933, "... let me assert my firm belief that the only thing we have to fear is fear itself..." Medicine, like everyday life, is full of uncertainties because even the rarest events "can" happen. The real question is how "likely" is something to happen? People typically don't catch HIV via an episode of oral sex.
