Having sex while maybe infected
I recently got pricked by a used syringe as a work accident (I work in a hotel as a housekeeper). The syringe was in contact with air for about 6 hours at least and there is very low chance that it belonged to a drug addict (it probably belonged to a hockey player). This happened about 3 weeks ago. The first set of tests (hepatitis B, C, HIV) were all negative and the next tests are scheduled in 1 week and then again after 3 and 6 months. Can I have sex with my partner?
