Hep C Risk?

Hi everyone,I'm just having a bit of anxiety over something that happened today. I did a blood sugar test in a very big hurry today and (even though I know I should have) I wasn't wearing gloves as I was under a lot of pressure at the time. I have since found out that the person was hep c +. I used hand santiser afterwards and I don't think I even touched any blood (but you can never be sure unless you have microscopes for eyes). I have to small very superficial cuts on my fingers. Is there any risk from this or does it actually need to be a proper needle stick injury? Freaking out a little over this. Thanks

You need to follow the policy as set out by your employer. We cannot speculate as to the risk involved.

Please check with your Occ Health dept as to their protocol. We can't provide medical advice
