Yes it is perfectly safe. HIV testing or any other tests involving blood draws are done witha new needle opened just before use. You are much more likely to have issues with staph (that is already on your skin) thatn anything else. Dont worry..get tested.

You shouldn't worry about that. No labority in any hospital will use pre-used tools to take blood sample from any patient even in the poorest countries. Because in this case, other viruses&bacteria can be transmitted and the hospital will probably be closed down and pay a huge fine to the infected ppl!

better than ninety 8% of persons who're contaminated would try effective interior 3 months. In very uncommon circumstances, it would want to take in to 6 months for someone to target effective. base line: attempting out after 3 years is conclusive. A unfavorable result at that element signifies that you're HIV unfavorable.
