If you got the drink with blood on the inside of the rim and you and your child drank it and only noticed afterwards, what would you do? Nothing, I assume. Since there is absolutely zero risk of any illness.
My child would have already been vaccinated.

I didn't ask about your child's vaccination status, I asked, what you would do if you were in the situation of the family who sued? Where you found blood on the rim of the cup of the drink that you and your child just finished drinking. What would you do?

We were discussing hepatitis B, I believe. My child would already have been vaccinated. I would not do any testing.

If the barista had coughed or sneezed while preparing the beverages would you rush to the doctor and demand to be tested for strep or flu?

So you would do nothing? Wouldn't even contact Starbucks?

If the barista was coughing and sneezing on my drink I wouldn't drink it.

Any contact with Starbucks would be to notify them of the problem. I would presume it was an accident. I would not be going to the doctor to get everyone tested for HIV.

You could get sick just from being in the vicinity of the sneeze or cough.

Obviously. But you asked what I would do if the barista was coughing and sneezing while preparing my drink and I answered that I wouldn't drink it. I also wouldn't drink something that someone spit in. Because it's gross.

I really wonder what everyone who thinks its no big deal would really think if they found out they or their child drank a stranger's blood.

I think some people would be singing a different tune. And if there wasn't a child involved (so there were parents to hate on and blame), I think there would be a lot of different themed posts by the same posters. But people LOOOOOOVE to attack parents...that trumps how gross it is to drink a strangers blood.
