I have receved a email with the below message. Thought I should share it with you all.
Friends,
This message is serious and has been passed to us from Cheshire RFU.
Could you please cascade as quickly as possible as this came through
our
NHS web page. For your information, a couple of weeks ago, in the
odeon
cinema, Festival Park, a person sat on something sharp in one of the
seats.
When she stood up to see what it was, a needle was found poking
through
the seat with an attached note saying, "you have been infected with
HIV". The Centres for Disease Control in Birmingham, reports similar
events have taken place in several other cities recently. ALL of the
needles tested HAVE been found positive for HIV. The CDC also reports
that needles have been found in the coin return areas of pay phones
and
coke machines. Everyone is asked to use extreme
Caution when confronted with these types of situations. All public
chairs should be thoroughly but safely inspected prior to any use. A
thorough visual inspection is considered the bare minimum. Further
more,
they ask that everyone notify their family members and friends of the
potential dangers, as well. The previous information was sent from
hanley police station to all of the local councils in the Staffs area
and was interdepartmentally dispersed. We were all asked to pass this
to as many people as possible."
:shock:
