HIV Risk at Barber Shop
Hello Sir,
Today I went to barber Shop for hair cut after hair cutting he shaved my hair near ear and back side of neck. I see him that he removed old blade from razor then dipped in Dettol + water solutions and then he picks up a blade which was scattered on his table. All Blades was broken in two pieces though it was covered in paper packets. Is there any chance of HIV or hepatitis if the barber wrap back all Blades in paper packets and reuses on customer.
Thanks
