Hey guys. I recently got someone else's fresh blood on my hand, and now I am freaking out that that blood may have been HIV positive. There were no open cuts or sores on my hand, and after seeing it I did not touch anything else, washed the hand with soap in pipping hot water, poured some bleach on the area and washed it again with soap and hot water. I then washed both my hands like I would normally. I know I should go get teste just in case, but assuming the blood was HIV positive, am I at any risk? Is there any chance of the virus still being alive on my hand? Can I do normal things like take a shower and touch other things, or will I get the virus on other things that I touch, or to other parts of my body in the shower with the water?
Please help I am kind of freaking out...
