The habbit of digging nose with fingers may cause Hiv infection in Social hand shaking practices or not?


While digging noses sometimes a slight amount of blood comes out of nose along with nasal fluids and gets rubbed before shaking hands. Does it carry any possibility of Hiv infection?

the possibility is too slim to even worry about...

All one has to do if they're worried about this, and it's good health practice anyway, is to cover with a band-aid any broken skin they may have on their hands...

There is possibly a TINY chance, but you'd need to be seriously unlucky because the other person would need to have an open wound at the exact place you shook their hand.

Whats more worrying that if you do pick your nose, you wouldn't wash your hands before shaking hands with someone. That is seriously grim. Id start thinking about your personal hygiene if I were you.
