Can I Get HIV After Coming In Contact With A Bleeding Person?
I just helped a young man who had fallen off his bike and hit his head. It had to physically touch him to help him off the middle of the road and he was sweating. I turned his head to see how bad the cut was but did not touch any blood. Should I be concered about transmittion Aids/HIV?
