And if so for how long?

Can virual bacteria survive on somthing like a piece of paper?
Bacteria can not survive on a clean surface very long, but they can survive on paper for a long time.
Reply:There is no such thing as a virul bacteria. There are viruses and there are bacteria.
Reply:Um, a virus and a bacteria are two different organisms. There are certain viruses that can infect bacteria. As for surviving outside of a host, it depends on the virus or bacteria. Some bacteria produce a waxy coating when exposed to air and can survive for long periods of heat, cold and lack of moisture, while other types die within minutes of being outside of a host.
