A member asked:
Took an oral hiv test at a clinic. when the person administering the test opened the package, part of the swab touched her jeans. can i get anything?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No*: The real-life answer is no. *however, anything can happen theoretically, but we can't live our lives that way, can we? There is risk to every single thing in life, such as walking to the clinic, so the key to life is to not worry about the rarest of possibilities.
