Question: sir, I am a male of age 35. I went for some pathological test (HIV & VDRL). I doubt whether the lab technician used new syringe to collect blood sample from me or not. It was not a much reputed laboratory. She took Rs 450 for both the tests. She also supplied the used Rapid HIV test kit & Syphilis Test strip attached with the report. she tols me that the reports are normal (HIV negative and VDRL non-reactive). sir my question is can a syringe used on any other person be used to collect blood sample from me by cheating or it will be automatically inactive to be used again ??? If the person took blood from me by an used syringe then can HIV enter into my body (if HIV is inside that syringe then how can it enter into my blood because perhaps there are no input from the syringe to my blood for sample collection !!! ). I asked the lab over phone after this incident they told me that they use the syringe only once. Am I in the risk zone of HIV ???? Please clear my doubt sir.

sir, can HIV enter into body if they use old syringe ? if so then how ???

sorry sir perhaps by mistake you have posted your previous reply. Please reply how HIV can enter by this because perhaps no blood from the syringe to my body.
