A member asked:
If non infected blood sits in a syringe for a long period of time can it form hep c?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
NO: Blood can not form any bacteria or viruses. If the person whose blood it is is infected with microbes then those microbes may be in the blood but you only get Hepatitis C from contact with someone else who has it (or with the blood of someone who is infected).
