HIV is inactivated in the laboratory after a few minutes of sitting at room temperature, but the flu virus is still active after
sitting for several hours. What are the practical consequences of these findings?A) HIV can be transmitted more easily from person to person than the flu virusB) The flu virus can be transmitted more easily from person to person than HIVC) This property of HIV makes it more likely to be a pandemic than the flu virusD) Disinfecting surfaces is more important to reduce the spread of HIV than the flu
Since HIV becomes inacivated in minutes, and the flu virus is still active, it would make sense to say that the flu virus can be transmitted more easily from person to person than HIV so B is the correct answer.
B) The flu virus can be transmitted more easily from person to person than HIV
I looks at some articles about it and found that it does occur following a viral illness however it never said anything about Antihistamines so I still might be wrong. If it is wrong please comment the right answer for other people to see.
