Email 316: My Exposure, Safety of the HIV Test
Posted by Pozziepinoy on 8:09 AM
Hello
POZZIEPINOY’S RESPONSE
Hi XXX.
Thank you for your email.
To answer your worries, please refer to my previous blog entries:
1. HIV Risks
All clinics are safe. However, we still have to do our part. If you are scared of the needle being infected, then make sure that the one who is going to draw blood from you removes the needle or syringe from the package right in front of you. Also, switching may happen if the nurse or medical technologist don't label it correctly so make sure to check the thing that was written on the test tube. If you are still doubtful, then go get another HIV test from another clinic but still do the same.
I hope I was able to answer your concerns. Feel free to email me again if you have other questions.
Stay healthy,
Pozziepinoy
