Hi... i was having a small cut yesterday.. this morning my friend was having nosebleeding and i helped her wipe the blood with tissue paper. If there is chance that my friend is HIV positive, and if my small cut happened to be in contact with the blood from the tissue paper. could i get an HIV?

Not a risk for HIV transmission. You both would have to be gushing blood and in direct contact. You had what is considered indirect contact.

thank you so much for your reply, such a relieve for me.. but im just wondering why indirect contact could not cause HIV to be transmitted, as i believe the virus is in the blood and could somehow in contact with my cut?
