Hi there
Any surgical prodecure should inly use sterilised equipment and procedures and this would include any procedure related to an abortion.
This is not just about HIV but other viruses and infections.
Because I don’t know anything about where this was performed, you would need to ask the clinic about your concerns.
If you are not able to ask the clinic these questions for any reason, they perhaps ask your regular doctor for a health check. The clinic should have also done this too to check that you are ok.
