hiv outside the body

[initech66]

I was curious if any of you had links to studies of hiv survival outside the body.  I often find the quote about how 90 to 99 % dies in a few hours, but don't worry because higher concentrations.  That's on thebody.com. I believe it was initially from the cdc,  but know cdc just says, Experts agree hiv does not survive well outside the body. .. Where are we getting this info from? Aids Vancouver says essentially the same stuff. MEDHELP says air kills immediately.

What about open cuts exposures?  Wouldn't in a hospital if an hiv positive person got blood on a nurses open cut on her arm they would put her on pep?  Is the difference that that's immediate and therefore direct transfer, whereas I am worried about surfaces after one minute?  
What about wet blood versus dry?
Is the statement hiv can be found in blood outside the body, but it is inactive true? Where is the research on this?

NO RISK.

I guess I was looking for supporting info.  Cdc just says hiv does not live long. ... my concern is  My hiv tester opened and put the bandaid on the clinic counter. Are you saying there is nothing to worry about in case there was infected blood on the counter that had access to my bloodstream via the fingerprick and bandaid.
Any comment of blood splash on nurses open wounds?

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.

HIV is transmitted by;
Unprotected penetrative anal and/or vaginal sex
Sharing works with other IV drug users
Mother to child
