HIV risk on a surface? DOC IM SCARED FOR MY LIFE! Mar 11, 2012 56 days ago on December 20 2011 drops of HIV+ blood dropped on a surface in my house from a friend of mine. 3 hrs later I cleaned it with tissues soaked with rubbing alcohol and washed my hands for 4 minutes. My question is: If my penis touched the same surface today February 13 2012 CAN I GET HIV from the surface?! I'm worried! When should I get tested? Thanks in advance! |

 Hi You are safe, no you cannot get HIV from what you have described. HIV dies shortly after leaving the body. Rest assured!! Be well and stay safe, Shannon | ||||||||
