Surface stains may lift, but blood that soaked through carpet and padding can sit in the subfloor and keep carrying germs and odor. In that case the soaked carpet and padding are cut out and disposed of as waste.
It depends on the germ and the conditions, and nobody can judge it by looking at a stain. Hepatitis B, for example, can survive on surfaces for a considerable time. That is why dried blood is treated as infectious until it has been properly disinfected.
Disposable absorbent towels are usually used so they can be bagged and thrown out as waste. Cloth towels that touch blood become contaminated laundry and need careful handling. Either way, wear gloves and never reuse a towel on another surface.
Wash the skin with soap and water right away, and rinse the eyes or mouth with clean water if blood splashed there. Then talk with a doctor or the local health department about next steps. This is general information, not medical advice.
Crime scene cleaners wear protective gear, contain the area, remove soaked porous materials and lift blood from hard surfaces. They then disinfect with EPA-registered products and haul the waste away. The goal is to remove the hazard, not just the stain.
No single product is best for every surface. Blood is lifted first, then the area is disinfected with a product made for bloodborne pathogens. Porous materials such as carpet or drywall often have to be removed instead of cleaned.
