A member asked:

How long can hiv live on a dead body (decomp fluid)? factors are dead for 2-3 days outside in 90+ degree weather, florida sun. risk of transmission after pricking finger on piece of glass while removing pants (forensic tech)?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

HIV can survive in a dead body for 1 to 1 &1/2 days. HIV in a syringe can survive in hot temperatures for 7 days. I would get tested in 3 weeks,12 weeks and 6 months for peace of mind. You could also get advice from your department of public health.
