I went for sugar test...after giving my blood sample I noticed blood stains on the gloves of the lady taking the samples...she is touching the stripes without sanitizing...she took my test with the same strip having the blood stains...There are 8 to 10 people before taken test in a gap of 5 to 10 mins each. What is the risk involved. I touched strip with same finger drop of blood pinched with new needle.please advise.
