Handshake with cut
Hi guys, I am a very friendly person and I like giving hugs, kisses and handshakes. I shook an old friends hand yesterday and I forgot that I had a cut on my index finger, he did come into contact with the cut and now I am very scared that I might have been exposed to HIV. Please guys someone help me and keep up the good work.
Hi Pixity,
hiv can not be transmitted by shakinh hands. HIV is unable to reproduce outside its living host, except under laboratory conditions. HIV does not survive in the open air. Hiv can only be transmitted through :
-unprotected vaginal or/and anal penetration
-from mother to child
-by sharing drug works
Keep calm , stay safe :)
