If you get infected, is it possible that you infect somebody else immediately?? or is there a time period that you do not have risk to infect??

I read it.

However I did not keep writing same things...
I asked a question.. You gave an answer to me.. thanks a lot...
now I am asking something else... (in case my scar was worse than I thought or things were a little different than I remember). I will get tested anyway. I am not asking if I might be infected...
I wanted to know if I am risky for others.

You never had an exposure and were advised by a doctor you had no risk,  so move along.

I will get tested anyway and I think I have the right to ask if I might be harmful to anyone around me before I get tested. This is my second question, and I do not think that tI am not wasting anyones time.
