hiv in public bathroom risk

[rich259]

please help whats my risk
i went to a public bathroom sat down and when i pulled my shorts up they were wet (semen or urine ) there was no light in bathroom so i could not see
so i took them off and rinsed the back of my shorts thats all fine no risk but when i wringed of the water i may have gotten throught a band-aid i had on my finger for a cut
whats my risk what if there was blood in urine does it have to dry to become non active since it was still wet
i know semen 3 - 10 min and its non active or dead
i know know no risk from urine prviding there is no blood but does it have to dry to be dead if there was blood ?
and i think when i rinsed with water it would have watered it down  i just need someone to conferm my thinking

The HIV concentrations used in HIV LAB science is 100,000 times more concentrated than what is found in humans.

no no no i understand but in my reserch i found out the cdc used 100,000 times higher concestrations than found in nature and 90 - 99 % of that was inactive after drying

i was just woundering if that 100,000 number was correct since i have only found 2 references to that number (100,000 times higher) in my reserch 1 of which being on the body web site

You were not in an HIV lab so it doesn't concern you.

thank vance i just thank god i live in queensland, australia we only have about 3000 - 3500 people living with hiv in queensland  in new south wales (sydney ) there is more than 14000 people with hiv  i know that is nothing compared with usa

thanks teak did not think i would ever be worried about environmental surfaces
but just did not know about wet fluids

teak since your here what do you think about the hiv 100,000 times higher than found in nature re: the cdc lab tests is that true that number realy did releave alot of my fears

Just to follow up with what I said but Teak did give a great answer. I was saying that for the virus to become inactive it doesn't take 2 seconds but it takes much less them 1 minute. But read Teaks answer it is right on.

[Teak]

No one has been identified as infected with HIV due to contact with an environmental surface. Additionally, HIV is unable to reproduce outside its living host (unlike many bacteria or fungi, which may do so under suitable conditions), except under laboratory conditions, therefore, it does not spread or maintain infectiousness outside its host.

sorry iam not trying to be rude but what does that mean ?
not 2 seconds but not 1 minute

do you mean not 2 seconds but less than 1 min

[Vance2335]

After HIV virus is exposed to air and temp changes it becomes inactive. Not 2 seconds but not 1 minute.

vance thanks i was just reading your other answers and was thinking of asking you personaly
but the cdc says the drying of hiv fluids so it does not have to be dry to be dead or non active
and also i read on the body web site that in cdc tests they used consentrations of hiv more than 100,000 times more higher than in nature i only found that said in 2 other places on the web

YOu had no risk, HIV is not passed from enviromental surfaces no matter what.
