Sex worker tested positive for HIV , how screwed am i?
Hi all, 32m here, i am very panicking and anxious. I had a sexual encounter with a street walker that ended up testing positive for HIV few days ago. She gave me oral with a condom and i penetrated her vaginally with the same condom. The condom was a bit loose and im not sure if it teared when she gave me oral (from teeth). How likely am i screwed? Should i be worried about this encounter?

You aren't screwed AT ALL. The assessment you were given earlier assumed that your partner was HIV+. After all, if we did not assume your partner was HIV+, the risk would always be zero.
As noted, you used a condom. As long as the condom covered the head of your penis during VAGINAL penetration, you were protected from HIV and had no exposure. You can't get HIV from someone giving you oral sex. That has never happened - EVER - and you will not be the first person.
You should stop thinking about this encounter and move on. You don't have HIV.
