Needle stick injuries

Until recently AID's and similar hazards were thought to have a short life expectancy on the end of a needle when in the general environment unlike tetanus etc

However the latest studies have shown the origional studies to be wrong

If you want chapter and verse on this can I suggest you contact a chap called Malcolm Roberts on 01778 426 841. He is extremely knowledgeable on this topic and my source of information.

If you do phone him it might be helpful if you mention that the referral came from me.

Regards
Chris
