I later got worried about hep c . So i aked the girls if thy had pricked their fingers also and thy said yes. Am i at risk for hep c or hiv with pricking my finger with the same sewing needle a few minutes after thy did. no blood came out of my finger when i squeezed my finger hard after being pricked |
