HIV & Blood?


Hey guys got a quick question for you. If someone has blood on their finger, like from a cut, and they touch your hair, what should you do? I am worried about HIV and Hep C. I was thinking that just washing my hair with hot water and soap would be fine, but then I got to thinking. What if the blood somehow soaked into my hair and stayed there, or what if I was in the shower and the blood ran to other places. What should I do? Should I cut off the hair that came into contact with the blood? Let us assume the blood was HIV positive too, just for arguments sake. So If I take a shower, will I still have HIV positive blood in my hair, and does that mean that I will spread the blood to my clothes, bed, etc? Please help, I'm freaking out!

NO BOB, NO!!! The answer as always is NO. What is your obsession with the HIV HCV virus and diff scenarios?
I think you should buy a bubble suit to live in and maybe cover your head with a shower cap when you leave the house so you can just throw it away when you get home.
This is so repetitive that instead of a score of 2 I'm gonna have to give you a 1. lol!

Don't freak out hon. If it helps your state of mind, pour alcohol on the area, but you should be fine with the shampoo.

You've washed the area, as long as you don't have an open wound in the same place you should be fine. Scrub up!

Don't worry, as long as the blood doesn't come into contact with your blood, you'll be fine.
