What is the infection probability of acupuncture AIDS? What are the infection factors of acupuncture AIDS
The probability of AIDS infection by acupuncture is affected by many factors, and the probability of AIDS infection by acupuncture is not high.
It is understood that acupuncture infection with AIDS is three dangerous points. Research shows that after acupuncture contaminated by HIV, the probability of HIV infection is 0.33% (20/6135).
Risk factors of acupuncture infection with AIDS: 1. depth of acupuncture; 2. nature of acupuncture (hollow is more dangerous than solid); 3. visible blood overflow from wounds; 4. acupuncture veins and arteries; 5. pollution source from early and late AIDS infected persons (high viral load).
All of the above factors will affect the risk of infection with AIDS caused by needle pricking, that is, the deeper the needle is, the more blood will bleed, the needle will directly touch the vein and artery, and the contaminated needle will come from AIDS patients in the early and late stages of AIDS infection (there are many HIV viruses), so the more likely they are to be infected with AIDS, on the contrary, the risk of AIDS infection will be lower.
In fact, the probability of being stabbed by a needle to infect AIDS is not high, and three people will be infected by AIDS for every 1000 acupuncture exposure events. In the event of acupuncture AIDS exposure, you can refer to the above risk factors, evaluate your own infection risk, deal with it in a timely manner, and take antiretroviral drugs as early as possible, because the earlier you take such drugs, the better the effect will be. If it exceeds 24 hours, the effect will be very small. At the same time, those who are injured by needles need follow-up testing.
