Healthcare workers in the developing world have been talking about this since the 80s when the AIDS epidemic first became a household word. Given the shoestring budget and primitive conditions that these healthcare workers faced when caring for indigenous peoples out in the bush, the need to reuse syringes was just an unfortunate reality of life. It was more important to get people vaccinated than to worry about shared syringes. In hindsight, these healthcare workers may seem foolhardy. Yet we must remember that it was a different era, with different acceptable levels of risk, even in the first world. After AIDS came on the scene, protocols changed drastically everywhere.
