a Simple Question On Hiv's Survival Posted: 07-15-05 12:40pm
I found there was some stain on my razor
after it was borrowed by one of my friends
one day before. So I put it under tap
water flow for 30 seconds first, and dried
the blade up. Then I scrubbed the blade
with iodine soaked cotton stick for
several seconds. But after I did all
these, I still can see a little stain on
the blade. My question is: do you think
the hiv virus can still survive after 24
hours exposed to air, water wash and
iodine scrub? Thanks and best regards.

From what I know, aids is a virus which
doesn't survive well without a live host.
This is why aids is not airborn, you can't
get it from touching and you can't get it
from a toilet seat or any of that
nonsense. If you washed it and soaked it
in iodine I wouldn't worry.
Who was this friend anyway? If it is
someone close to you, can't you just ask
them if they have aids? Also if it is a
stain it could be rust or something. If
you are that worried just throw the razor
away sheesh.
