Brief Answer:
There is very little risk of contracting an infection!

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about this incident that you have reported. There is little if not zero risk of contracting an infection from a simple blood spill. It happens all the times and with an intact skin, there is no reason to get worried. Your chances of contracting an infection are almost ZERO. Be calm and relaxed about this.

I hope this helps. I wish you well. Feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be. Above all, thanks for using our services.

Brief Answer:
Don’t get worried by this!

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

This is okay. Blood spills onto our bodies daily and chances of infections are very very small. I suggest that you relax about this. I will not recommend testing for any infections at this time. Any testing now is not really justified.

Let me know if this works for you. I wish you well.

Brief Answer:
PEP pills for this is really overdoing it!

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

These PEP pills are safe. However, it is not worth it given the risk of your exposure. If you insist, you can get it but as a physician, I will not put my patient on PEP following such a minute exposure.

I wish you well and keep me updated about this.
