Hey guys I have a question. I was at the checkout counter at a store, and when it was time to pay the man ringing me up I noticed he had a small cut on his finger with what appeared to be fresh blood on it. He took my credit card, swiped it and handed it back to me. I remember telling my self that there might be blood on my card, so I put it in my shorts pocket. I am now wondering if I should wash those shorts, or ust get rid of them, becasue some blood from the card may have been transfered onto the shorts. Let's assume the blood was HIV positive for arguments sake. Will washing the shorts in hot water with regular soap kill any virus, or should I just through them out and not wash them at all? Please help, I don't know what to do.
Thanks

I have a fungal infection from my chin down to my hips and some on my face. I went to my doctor and he gave me an antifungal creme but it didnt work. I made another appointment but its not for 3 weeks and Im out of medicine. I tried Tenactin and Gold Bond but I can't tell if its making a difference. Any advice would be great as I can't go to work or hold my daughter. Please help.
