[|Human|] Hi, i used a needle to pick my teeth and later realised i didnt know where it came from, also it scraped my gum and when i looked at the needle, it had a tiny bit of my blood on it, if the needle had HIV, would i be able to contract the virus this way? Seen as i didnt inject deeply and the needle looked clean, ( the needle didnt have a syringe attached to it ) it was a hollow needle nurses use when doing home visits to collect blood. ( My mother is diabetic) Thankyou for your time
[|AI|]  I think we should ask first family to whom belongs the needle and if it is used by them. Diabetes is a disease that is not transmitted through the blood. A way in which the disease is transmitted use of the same needle, and therefore nowadays are disposable needles. Should be careful when using needles and have to throw down after the use. If the needle has been used previously by a person infected with HIV then it becomes a source of infection for other people.
