Life span of one virus in your body.
« on: March 01, 2015, 11:28:01 am »
Since Harvoni inhibits the virus from replicating,  I wonder what the life span of the last individual virus is.  So if it's like a rabbit, and it's now sterilized.  How long will that last rabbit live?
It's a battle.  Your at war.  Better get tough.  The virus is, so you better get the warrior mentality

After 7 days treatment my virus went down from 1.2 million to 190 so less than 8 days is all I know for sure.
Whats weird is the virus can live outside the body inside a syringe for 63 days.
