This is a scientific question. There are many factors which determine this. You must be able to differentiate "survive"(viability) vs.infectiveness.

"Infectiveness" should say "Infectiousness". my apologies, (I was distracted)
=JC-
so how long does it live outside of the body and things like that
Viruses don't "live" . If you're asking how long it would be infectious for,? Seconds.
-JC-
yes that is what im askin sorry that i was clear about it. Really only seconds why is that I read that it could still live in dried up blood
This is why I used the term "viable" and "infectious". In wet blood, the Viral Particles may be "viable" longer, but only "infectious" for seconds. In dried blood, again the viral particles can be reactivated if a laboratory solution is added, but wouldn't be "infectious" due to outer protein damage to the particle"
-JC-
so the risk of getting hiv from dried blood is almost zero
thank sir for sharing you knowledge
one more question what if you have a fresh cut and you come incontact with +hiv fresh or dried up blood is there any risk
Dried Blood is NO RISK. You want to exercise a little common sense with wet blood. Still unlikely to be infected for a number or reasons.
