Not through chain letters, but via published documents (as I've pointed out the URLs before), news reports and the like. Every time there is a needle stick injury in a train or on the beach (thankfully not yet elsewhere) it is reported in the papers. It is usually reported that the affected person has to undergo tests and wait a period of time before he/she can be declared free of infection from a needle stick injury. Are the media to blame? (Note that in this country, the govt, in its wisdom, issues free replacements (meant to be an exchange, but it rarely happens) to druggies to help keep the spread of disease, due to needle-sharing, down. Unfortunately, it means that there's more of them being discarded around.) > The point is it is wrong to disseminate urban > legends > and hoaxes through chain letters and spam email.
