i have recently read many articles on hpv livingAdvanced care directives outside the body for extended periods of time
but it all too often can be confusing one site says one thing another smething completely different . what are the chances of contracting hpv through an inanimate object and how long can the virus live there and would special circumstances like a moist soap dispenser prolong its life.
Gosh, I haven't heard about this. I think it's probably debatable at the very least. The HPV virus's that are STD's usually need a moist environment to thrive. I don't know what inanimate objects you are talking about, but probably washing them in hot soapy (anti-bacterial) water would do the trick.
