A member asked:
Is soap kill hiv aids or how long it takes to die hiv aids in dettol antiseptic it inactive the virus but how long it take to kill the virus in it ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Why do you ask?: HIV outside the body is extremely fragile. It's transmitted only by exchange of fresh body fluids. Antiseptics are basically superfluous in preventing AIDS transmission. Viruses aren't even really alive, and "inactivated" is as good as gone.
