A member asked:
Does non ionic active wet wipes kill hiv virus? i cleaned blood by wet wipes that includes non ionic active matter?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Any cleaner is OK: Any cleaner, ionic or non-ionic, instantely kills HIV. However, it doesn't matter very much. HIV is never transmitted by contact with the virus in the environment. If no sex or injection drug use with shared equipment, you will never be at risk for HIV.
