Hiv, Hepatitis transmission

2021-10-11 07:44:57
Hi, At barbershop while getting shaved, I got a cut on face and same time barber got a cut in his finger and he was bleeding. Although there wasn't any visible touch between his blood and my cut as it was very quick. After that different barber applied alum in my cuts, and rest of the shaving done by other barber and with different blade. I am worried if there is any possible transmission of HIV/ Hepatitis or any other fatal disease through his blood or Alum. What should be my next steps ?
