Weird

So I was ok until another Doctor gave an answer about HIV from blood.

Answer: Nonexistent, assuming the HIV-positive blood touched only intact skin.

Question: "Would the person need to have an open bleeding wound also?"

Answer: Yes, the HIV-tainted blood would need to come into contact with non-intact skin.

You're welcome!

Dr. Bob
