Helloo, how long does hiv live on a condom if left on a surface?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
The answer depends on many things including temperature, airflow, moisture level, etc. Most viruses including HIV die when they start drying off. This could be almost immediately to a few minutes. Viruses on surfaces consistently do not live past about 20 minutes even under the most favorable conditions.
