Hiv trasmission worry
Hi, I'm very scared. About 5 days ago I hugged a person who was crying, and the right side of my face had a very small cut that touched her tears. Later she explained to me that she is HIV positive. I am very worried. I red an article that says teardrops contain active Hiv virus. Should I go to the hospital and take PEP? I am getting tested tomorrow anyway. But I can't sleep ever since. I'm so worried. Help me please. Thank you!
