Would any one be able to tell me how long the HIV virus would survive in your every day moisturising body lotion.Can it survive at all in anything else aside from blood and sexual secreations.
Appreciate and answer.

Teak, can you give a little bit more specifics? The web is full of descriptions of how HIV takes over the T Cells but I've found no information about how it live/exist inside the body. What are the conditions required for HIV to live, or exist?
HIV is not alive, it's either active or inactive. HIV cannot stay active outside its host.
