^If his cut and bloodied mouth came into contact with your cut and bloodied mouth, there might have been a chance...I don't think there's much to worry about from sharing a glass of sherry with the guy though (unless both your mouths are cut and bloodied).
 
Actually I'd say there is a chance if it's hep C. Not a huge chance but it can certainly be spread by saliva. Hep C is infectious as fuck. I'd definitely get tested for it not only to put my own mind at risk but also to prevent me from spreading it to others if I did have it. Folk I've known with hep C would never share a cup, bottle or whatever with anybody else.
 
It's not just about the cut mouths/blood but the bits that the guy had probably sloshed back into the bottle - get a test! It's the same when I see a lot of people sharing straws when snorting - freaks me out a bit.
 
I did hear somewhere that you can pick up Hepatitis C from a toilet seat :sus:
 
Probably can if it's been recently sprayed with explosive diarrhea. Hep C really isn't far away from being what aids is as urban myth. Went through folk I knew like a hot knife through butter. Even those who thought they were taking all precautions.
 
PS4!!!!!!!!!! I hadn't even heard of anything in the boiler room for that, my ps3 is gonna become like a megadrive in a few years time. As long as they have fifa for it then I'll be fine, lol. I probably wont get one though, I'm happy with my ps3 and the very few games I play on it, mainly use it for DVDs and Netflix and lovefilm and iplayer and stuff now anyway.

I went into town last night and got talking to a local homeless guy. I took a few slugs of his sherry, and was later informed he has hepatitus c. Is there any chance i could become infected?

How can you get hepatitis C?

Hepatitis C is a blood-borne disease. The main source of infection is from blood from an infected person.
  • Most cases are caused by using contaminated needles or injecting equipment (spoons, syringes, filters, water for injection, etc) to inject drugs ('sharing needles'). Even a tiny amount of an infected person's blood left on a needle is enough to cause spread to others.
  • Some people who received blood transfusions or blood prior to 1991 were infected with hepatitis C from some donor blood. Since 1991 all blood and blood products donated in the UK are screened for the hepatitis C virus.
  • There is also a risk of contracting hepatitis C from needlestick accidents, or other injuries involving blood spillage from infected people.
  • There is a small risk of contracting the virus from sharing toothbrushes, razors, and other such items which may be contaminated with infected blood. (The virus can live outside the body, possibly for up to four days.)
  • There is even a small risk from inhaling drugs like cocaine, as these can make the inside of your nose bleed. If that happens, tiny spots of blood can fall on to the note you are using and, if that is used by someone else, your blood can travel up their nose and into their bloodstream.
  • There is also a small risk from re-used equipment used for tattooing, body piercing, acupuncture, etc.
  • There is a small risk that an infected mother can pass on the infection to her baby.
  • There is a small risk that an infected person can pass on the virus whilst having sex.

The virus is not passed on during normal social contact, such as holding hands, hugging, or sharing cups or crockery.

Hepatitis C test
If you think you could have been in contact with the hepatitis C virus at any point in the past, you can have a test to find out if you've been infected. You should ask you GP. Local drug agencies and sexual health clinics (sometimes called genito-urinary medicine or GUM clinics) may also offer testing.

Guys I'm a bit fucked - Is my paranoia about sharing straws with people based on rubbish/,myths? My understanding is - regular snorters often/can have that crispy nasal passage. I know after a heavy weekend I have blown my nose to see blood - - now if I was to share a straw with a similar crusty nasal raver surely its possible to exchange blood? Is this amount of blood swapping not enough to spread disease ?

That's reassuring, there was definitely no blood involved. Just read on Wiki "HCV is not spread through casual contact, such as hugging, kissing, or sharing eating or cooking utensils"

I certainly never french kissed the guy with a bloodied mouth, honest.

It's definitely one of the risk factors drug agencies bring up - is why some of them provide sterile straws now. As you say, snorting drugs tends to involved bleeding on occasion. Not a massive risk maybe but a risk.

Drug agencies I've been with have also always warned against sharing cups, cans, bottles and stuff for similar reasons - it's far from uncommon to have blood in saliva. Especially folk who maybe don't have the best dental hygiene practices for one reason or another.

I think it's unlikely that you've contracted it, but there's definitely a possibility from sharing a bottle imo (if he had blood in his mouth - from poor dental hygiene, sore gums etc).

I'd definitely still get a test. It's something that you wont necessarily see the symptoms of for a long time going by those two links, so at least with a test you'll have piece of mind and can forget about it rather than leave it nagging away in the back of your mind

Thanks Shambles :) - saw the two posts I quoted as a jovial piss take of my post so set me wondering.
 
re Hep C...no way you would get it from swigging from a bottle, zero chance really.

It's a blood to blood job. You can however definitely get it from sharing a snorting note.

Very, very rare for it to be contracted via sex too, anal sex being much riskier but still very rare.

not quoting any sources, but have extensive experience supporting close friends/partners who have/had the damn bastard disease
