Same symptoms as tuberculosis
I have tuberculosis and under medication already but reading same symptoms online for hiv, I'm scared of hiv infection. I didn't have sex for last 1 year but yet scared because I go to salon and they shave using same object but different blades however there is some wound during shaving anyone hence I want to double check. Can't have blood test due to family fear.

Don't worry
At saloon, hiv transmission is very rare, as razors are changed for every customer and hiv virus can not remain alive in unfavourable atmosphere for more than 20 seconds.
