Water, Soap, Razor and a kind of conflicted informations

[MM2010]

Hello everyone.

First of all, sorry for any english mistakes. It's not my main language.

I've been here in last year (middle last year, if I'm not wrong). I was asking about risks involving razors.

People told me that razors are not a risk and that's fine, I moved on.

But I was wondering a thing. Everybody says that hiv is a fragile virus and that it dies quickly once in contact with air. There are people that says that hiv is a virus that is hard to transmit. It's only transmitted inside the body, etc.

That's fine too.

My thoughts were: I presume that almost everybody uses water (sometimes hot, sometimes cold) and soap to shave, right? If HIV is a fragile virus, would it die in contact with soap?

I presume that yes, it does. I see a lot of places that say "hiv is transmitted via shared instruments that may have contact with blood, like needles, razors, manicure instruments, etc.". I can also presume it's wrong. Needles? Yes. But razors and manicure instruments? No. Am I right?

Why do those sites say that? Why to spread bad information and cause panic to extremelly worried people?

I'm trying to spread good information here where I live, always saying it's a fragile virus, that it would dies even only in the air, but that would be even faster in contact with soap or even only water. But I would need your reassurance so I can show this to people.

Thanks a lot to you all. You make a wonderful work.

Best of all to all you. Happy new year

Ok, thanks!

I know you're gonna be mad with me, but I'll ask it: are water and soap enough to inactivate the virus? period?

thank you
