What Is The Survival Time For The Virus Outside The Human Body?

Hi, I am on my 20th week of pregnancy, no history of detection of cmv. Yesyerday, I played with a girl and her saliva stayed on my hand (I forgot to wash the hands). About 5-10 minutes later, when her saliva was dryied out, I touched my nose with my hand. What is the chance to get cnv this way? How much time can the virus survive in dry saliva on my hand?



Thank you
