A member asked:
What can you do to wash blood or body fluids off skin if the blood is infected with hepatitis c?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Let me help you: Hepatitis c is usually spread when blood from a person infected with the hepatitis c virus enters the body of someone who is not infected. Wash it off with soap and hot water, then you can use alcohol or a 10 to 1 water to bleach solution on the areas where the blood was.
