Won't most known medical treatments kill said person?

Re: UK residents :: Shocking 'trend'
 

There probably is, however it will probably cost the earth, and be unavaliable on the NHS!

only when they are shared not from needles that are used after some time

damn, and i thought we had all the wackos here in the United States

Re: UK residents :: Shocking 'trend'
 

if this is true it is really sick.you should always check the seat at the movies or any public place for spit and gum, let alone for needles. the AMC cinema i go to is ultra filthy all the time so i make it a point to take a mini mag ligth and check my seat before i sit on it, may seem anal but at least i am not getting gum on my pants let alone needles and other sick $hit.

as pheonix already said...

AIDS (Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome or Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome, rarely written Aids) is a disease characterized by the destruction of the human immune system. It stands today as a global epidemic, that originated in sub-Saharan Africa during the twentieth century. Although there are treatments to hinder the progress of AIDS, there is yet no known cure or vaccine.


but besides, it's improperly called AIDS by many. it starts as HIV, which can be transferred through needles/bodily fluids. it takes about 12 years for it to become full-fledged AIDS, which then greatly weakens your immune system in an incredible amount of time, and it's not actually AIDS that is the direct cause of your death, but what it does is basically turns your immune system against itself and takes it out, then anything as small as the common cold can kill you because your immune system cannot fight it off

Oh jeez, thank goodness it's an old wive's tale. I recieved an e-mail from a friend with this story in it.

I'll still continue to check public seats, however, because if this old wive's tale falls into the wrong hands, who knows what sick person would try and copy it?

To be honest with you, I'd still be pretty freaked out if that happened to me, even after reading the Snopes report. I'd run out of the theatre and fly out of the parking lot and down the highway to the medical center at 95 - 100 mph.
