If somehow hiv infected bodily fluid was left in warm tap water for about 2 minutes, would it survive?


Answer:
Derek, hiv is a delicate virus that needs the correct environment to live, as in the urethra of a man and cervix of a woman or hollow iv drug needles where blood is exchanged. HIV “dies” within seconds if exposed to our environment. So even if some blood came in contact with water, the virus would die rather quickly. Hope this answers your question.
Good luck

Answer:
i doubt it man…. imagine if someone with hiv went in a public pool? that would be disaster
