Concerning about Hep C transmission

[linlinwin]

I am living with other people in the same house. We are not sharing razors, toothbrushes but we share bathroom, toilet, basins. I got an accidental open wound on my leg from burning with motorbike engines.  I forgot my wound and I bath in the same bathroom.  I am worried if there are any invisible blood drops or bodily fluids in the water, is there any risk of hepatitis C transmission from indirect contact.  The source is unknown, the water and I have an open wound.  Please help me.  I am very worried now.

Have any of your housemates tested positive for Hepatitis C?   Like flyinlynn said, sharing a bath is not a way to become infected - it requires someone else's infected blood to get directly into your bloodstream.   There are many couples who have lived together for decades where one of them has Hep C and the other (or any of their children) never get infected.  This is even when the infected person does not even know he or she has it so they are not taking any precautions.

There have been no known incidence of transmission from the exposure you have described.

Hep c requires blood to blood contact you would need to have an open wound. I am assuming you used fresh water. But even if you bathed in reused bath water and if s there were miscopic amounts of hep c infected blood in the reused bath water that is not a known means of transmission.
