Hii

I admire you for positive outlook.
It is very less chance that you might be infected.

If your hands has some break in skin then it increases chance.

But as you have already done test and it came negative

If possible then repeat the test or go for ELISA for more confirmation.

If it will come negative then no chance that you have infection.

Thank you.
Take care.
