Hello and thanks for the questions. Based on the research in regards to HIV living on surfaces the science indicates that the virus begins to die immediately once exposed to air. While there is some question about how long HIV can live outside the human body, the facts state it can take from 30 seconds to 3 minutes. It is our recommendation that no person shares personal grooming devises including razors.
Q: How long can people infected with HIV expect to live? In the early days of the epidemic, the answer would have been simple--and hard to take. After becoming infected with HIV, people could expect to get AIDS within about 10 years, and then live only 1 to 2 years more. But things have changed dramatically since then.ith proper medical care, people with HIV can expect to live much longer now than they could 20 years ago. We still can't tell exactly how long because many of the medications and tests have been around only for 15 years or less, and people are living longer than that.
