possible hiv exposure?
jubbles123
Hello everyone!
I recently used a co workers electric razor, wasn't thinking at the time.
I'm just wondering what the risk of getting HIV this way is?
I didn't notice any visible cuts on myself.
Thanks!

You're good, the hiv virus wont live outside the body long. Dont share anymore razors though, cause they are viruses like hep c that can live outside the body for 16hours or longer
