Do you think the virus could be transmitted in this situation?
NO!

How long does the virus survive on the hands?
A very short time and much virus is lost using hands.

If the virus is on the hand, does it rub off when a person touches other objects?
probably a little of it might possibly

Does viral shedding happen on the scalp, forehead or in the hair?
no

How dose one skipped dose of Valtrex impact suppression?
no

Should I wipe my forehead, ears, and neck with alcohol wipes before going to salon?
no!

Does the heat from a hair dryer kill the virus when hair is blow dried? I believe shampoo does.
Probably, those driers are pretty darn hot!
