Answer:

8820 units/kg

Explanation:

Since 1kg=2.205 lbs then \frac{150}{2.205}=68.03 kg.

Then the dose for a 68.03 kg person is 600000 units.

Then \frac{600000}{68.03}=8820 is equal to the number of units administered per kilogram body weight.

I would have consulted with the patient about if it was okay to let the other person know that they could now be infected with HIV and if the HIV positive patient said it was fine I would go back and tell the other patient.
