I’d be upset too, but Hep B/C and HIV are survivable these days. It would really suck to know that you were exposed to CJD though. There’s no surviving that one.
Survivable does not mean you are going to have a good time. With HIV you are on strong antivirals for the rest of your life. Anything is better than slowly dying but its not a walk in the park.

From an American point of view, HIV treatment would absolutely ruin my life, both from the obvious health perspective, but financially.
Bankrupt, homeless, sick as a dog… I could easily see someone taking their own life in that scenario.
Is the medicine there? Sure. If you’re rich.
Hell, South Park did an episode that made the cure for HIV just be money, because that is certainly a requirement, at least here.
