If hep c lives up to 16 hrs and no more than 4 days could it sill cause an infection during that period of time?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: But you do not state where it is living and whether it can get into your body from there. This virus is predominantly transmitted by blood or needle sharing. If you have engaged in activities such as these go and get tested.
