Response from Dr. Frascino
Hello, Your HIV risk is completely nonexistent, unless: 1. The nurse was HIV positive and actively bleeding and her fresh blood got into your veins. 2. The nurse was HIV positive and after she drew your blood, you shagged her commando style halfway to heaven and back again (the way only a true Italian can!). But since you didn't mention either of these extenuating circumstances, I'd say once again HIV is not your problem. No way. No how. Be well. Stay well! Dr. Bob | |||||||||
