Dear Friends,
Kindly take a couple of minutes to go thru this mail. If useful may advise
others also . Please pass this on to others this happened in Paris recently
and may happen elsewhere also.
A few weeks ago, in a movie theatre, a person felt something poking from her
seat. When she got up to see what it was, she found a needle sticking out of
the seat with a note attached saying "You have just been infected by HIV"..
The Disease Control Center (in Paris) reports many similar events in many
other cities recently. All tested needles were HIV Positive.
The Center also reports that needles have been found in cash dispensers at
public banking machines.We ask everyone to use extreme caution when faced
with this kind of situation. All public chairs/seats should be inspected
with vigilance and caution before use. A careful visual inspection should be
enough. In addition, they ask that each of you pass this message along to
all members of your family and your friends of the potential danger.
Recently, one doctor has narrated a somewhat similar instance that hppened
to one of his patients at the Priya Cinema in Delhi .. A young girl, engaged
and about to be married in a couple of months, was pricked while the movie
was going on. The tag with the needle had the message "Welcome to the World
of HIV family". Though the doctors told her family that it takes about 6
months before the virus grows strong enough to start damaging the system and
a healthy victim could survive about 5-6 years, the girl died in 4 months,
perhaps more because of the "Shock thought". We all have to be careful at
public places, rest God help! Just think about saving a life by forwarding
this message. Please, take a few seconds of your time to pass along.
With Regards, S. Dinesh Gopinath,
I.A.S, Director of Medical & Research Div, Chennai.
