Question
I have done sex with a  call girl during sex i had wear two condoms after sex blood cam out from vagina of call girl but blood not touch me at all and  also she left marks of nail on my shoulder can i become hiv possitive... what chances of aids

Answer
You cannot get HIV from a scratch.

If blood did not enter your body then you are not at risk.

However, wearing 2 condoms is NOT safer than 1 condom. Condoms rub together and the friction can increase the likelihood of breakage. Wearing 1 condom correctly is sufficient and safer.
