default
Posted on Tue, 17 Jul 2012
Question: Hello Doctor,
I went for visa medical tests on XXXXXXX 15 and I cleared all the medical tests. In that test the doctor has gave me some vaccine and I clearly didn't observe the syringe and needle. From that day onwards I got some fear whether do I get any HIV. Please help me and give some advice.
