HIV can't survive for long in the air. As soon as fluid leaves the body and is exposed to air, it quickly begins to dry up. This damages the virus, making it inactive. Once it's inactive, HIV is ?dead? and no longer infectious. Let's have a detailed discussion for better advice and healthy lifestyle.
