HIV requires living cells to persist - so exposure to air will typically result in cell death within hours.

The only
exception to this is in the case where a larger volume of blood is spilled, then the cells in the center of the
pool will be preserved for a longer period of time. But the general answer to the typical small cut and blood
contact is that the virus survives very poorly outside the body and is probably of minimal risk as soon as the
blood dries (minutes to hours depending on the volume of the spill or cut).
