Is it possible to contract HIV by touching the door handle in a women's restroom?

Patient's question:

AIDS and hepatitis B are both transmitted through blood. Touching the door handle in a women's restroom will you get AIDS?

Doctor's answer:

When using the restroom, if the door is closed, you may touch the door and the faucet. AIDS and hepatitis B are transmitted through blood, but girls may not have blood on their hands after using the restroom, so there's no need to worry too much. These are normal situations. Diseases like AIDS and hepatitis B are transmitted through blood and sexual contact, among other ways. In the case mentioned above, transmission will not occur. Although there may be wounds on the hands, they are already sealed by body fluids, so transmission will not happen.
