What are the possibilities of getting hiv or hep through blood splash in the eye or through open wounds. And how much should the wound be open? And if a blood splashed in the eye and we didn't wash it then should we be concerned about it? How much blood poses a concern? And what if we touch blood from somewhere and touch it in our eye without noticing? Can that cause a concern?
