Yup. There’s no reason to shoot up with dirty needles.
Drug junkies are stuck on stupid.
But people who abuse drugs are like alcoholics: they refuse to take responsibility for their own lives.
I wouldn’t live with someone who refused to live a clean and healthy lifestyle.
My cup of tea isn’t watching someone die. I don’t care to go through that experience.
When I worked at a top blood lab in a leading university hospital, we had blood dotting machines for testing trays, which had multiple needles dotting multiple specimens into each tray. Some were from sick people, including HIV. How did we clean the machine’s metal needles? Easy: hooked it up to a tiny hose and let tap water run through it for 5 minutes, then shoot alcohol through the needles. Bingo. Any addict could reuse a dirty needle if he had two syringes. Take the needle out of one and use it as the cleaning syringe. Shoot water into the dirty needle for a while, then inject with the needle less syringe some rubbing alcohol into the dirty needle, presto, clean needle.
