What virus was a persistent hepatitis in the 70's-90's?
Had viral hepaitis in the late '78 and '79. After all these years they refused to allow my friend to give blood because I had that in the late 79'sNever before have I ever had this problem, why all of a sudden they started? amy liver eve healed itself in the 80's. Never had Aids or andyting else. I do take offense to this because others were able to give blood. I do not understand why they all of a sudded refused.....I take blood work every year and every thing comes out great! Please explain to me why this is occuring out of the blue.

How long does a needle stay infected with hepaitis c virus?
HIV is not able to live outside the human body for long. Once exposed to air, the virus will die within a matter of minutes. However, in the case of a syringe, the interior is a vacuum and is devoid of air, which means the virus can live longer. The best practice is to avoid using needles unless you are sure they are new. It is possible to properly clean needles. The CDC (Centers for Disease Control) suggests using a solution of 1 part bleach, 2 parts water to clean and flush products before using.
