hiv from blade

Can hiv survive in blade. Further it is written in wiki answers that 15% of cases of hiv is not known from any specific reason and there is a person in the body.com who has said that due to use of tooth brush he caught hiv. further I got a shave didnt rem he used a new blade as I saw him taking a new blade but didnt saw him putting that blade on the razor. Further i got a very deep cut and blood cam spilling that fool continued to prees my wound in order to stop blood and after pressing and applying alum my blood stopped. Now I fear about hiv if it was a used blade?

Of course it is false. After 30 post years of scientific study you want to by pass it and go with peer review? Seek professional mental help. You are beyond the scope of help that any Internet forum can provide.

A case in Australia in the late 1990's involved two sisters.
Both tested positive within a month of each other. The risk contact for the older sister was identified as being sexual contact she had with a Russian man. The younger sister had not had any obvious risk exposures, and through interview, the conclusion was made that the only possible risk exposure was the fact that they shared a razor to shave their legs. Analysis of the type of virus they had concluded that they did have the same Russian virus strain, not commonly found in Australia.

Hey Teak just today I have read that one person in the body.com has claimed about the transmission occuring from hosehold settings and further there have been two documented cases on used blade one of two brothers and one of two sisters. Please dont issue any warnings as this is a genuine doubt and these are true stories. Even one doctor in the body.com has said there has been one documented case
