True or False: HIV particles can live for up to 24 hours on a dry surface.

  1. True

  2. False

The correct answer is: False

The correct answer is that HIV particles do not survive for long periods on dry surfaces. Research indicates that HIV can become inactive relatively quickly outside the human body, typically within a few minutes to a few hours. On dry surfaces, it is generally considered that HIV does not last beyond a few hours, making the notion of it surviving for up to 24 hours on a dry surface inaccurate. This understanding is vital for practicing proper infection control and safety measures in healthcare settings.
