HIV transmission through fresh cut
about 2 weeks ago I had a sexual encounter with a transsexual, prior to this I was opening a beer bottle and I broke it, cutting my finger about 1/2 inch long and a bit deep. not thinking about it we continued and I believe that some of this persons' semen came into contact with my cut. I will get tested soon but I need some input on transmission of HIV through blood. Is it very possible that I might test positive or am I trippin'? And if this is possible, then for a transmission to occur, the other person must have the virus, correct? thank you for your input!
if you had unprotected sex .. please get tested .......... blood contact with vaginal fluid outside body is no risk .......
