How is hiv transmitted through barbershops? should an hiv sufferer be wounded with a razorand then the person who is not infected should be wounded and blood will fall into it in less than two minutes because the virus dies? is this correct?

Great question. I would go to CDC for details. The virus can live longer than 2 minutes.m Check state rules for barber sterilization of equiment rules and be certain they follow.,
