I don't think you have much to worry about. The Material Data Safety Sheet (MSDS) for it states that it is neither a skin nor eye irritant, and that there is no known human ingestion hazard. Wash your hand off and relax - you don't have to worry.

No, Wite Out shouldn't cause any kind of ink poisoning. It it considered non-toxic unless repeatedly inhaled or ingested. Washing your hands should remove most or all of it.

You'll be fine. Try getting it off with soap and water, and if that doesn't work, try baby oil.
