Help! Mysterious substance and HIV transmission?? Nov 23, 2011 Hello, I am extremely worried right now. I was changing a garbage bag at work, and, as I pulled the plastic bag out of the bin, a clear, unidentified liquid spilled out over my hands. I was not wearing gloves, and think that I had a just-healing cut on the back of my hand. Should I be worried? Should I be seeking testing for HIV? Thanks so much! |

 Hi there: No risk. HIV doesn't live well outside the body. No testing needed. In health, Richard | ||||||||
