Hello
Although chances for transmission seems to be low but still there may be a minuscule possibility of it .
However compared to the possibility,anxiety is very high.
I would advise you to get a HIV DUO test which is almost 100% accurate and is done after 28 days of the exposure.
A negative HIV DUO should make you very comfortable.
Thanks
