Guest guest Posted May 16, 2006 Report Share Posted May 16, 2006 Message from : Arvind Khamitkar , I.A.S, Director of Medical & Research Div, Chennai ____________________________________________________________________________ Dear Friends, Kindly take a couple of minutes to go thru this mail. If useful may advise others also . Please pass this on to others this happened in Paris recently and may happen elsewhere also. A few weeks ago, in a movie theatre, a person felt something poking from her seat. When she got up to see what it was, she found a needle sticking out of the seat with a note attached saying "You have just been infected by HIV". The Disease Control Center ( in Paris ) reports many similar events in many other cities recently. All tested needles were HIV Positive. The Center also reports that needles have been found in cash dispensers at public banking machines.We ask everyone to use extreme caution when faced with this kind of situation. All public chairs/seats should be inspected with vigilance and caution before use. A careful visual inspection should be enough. In addition, they ask that each of you pass this message along to all members of your family and your friends of the potential danger. Recently, one doctor has narrated a somewhat similar instance that happened to one of his patients at the Priya Cinema in Delhi . A young girl, engaged and about to be married in a couple of months, was pricked while the movie was going on. The tag with the needle had the message "Welcome to the World of HIV family". Though the doctors told her family that it takes about 6 months before the virus grows strong enough to start amaging the system and a healthy victim could survive about 5-6 years, the girl died in 4 months, perhaps more because of the "Shock thought". We all have to be careful at public places, Just think about saving a life by forwarding this message. Please, take a few seconds of your time to pass along. With Regards, Arvind Khamitkar , I.A.S, Director of Medical & Research Div, Chennai. _________________________________________________________________________________________________ regs. -- Capt Ranga Mohan Security, Safety & Gen Administration Asian paints Limited Patancheru Plant Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Little Read Book: Check twice before you Forward...

I was obviously surprised, as this was not some crappy trivial mail of “pass this or your love will get mad at you and you will be cursed for lifetime” mail. It was much more serious! How could someone forward such wrong information?? While I was busy pointing fingers at others, I realized I was doing the same thing! Forwarding some mail without checking it for its veracity! AND I actually, call me foolish, vowed to check my seat in the movie hall before sitting in it!!!! Well, I immediately verified this information on the net and what I found was even more surprising! This hoax is being passed from one generation to another!! It is quite a little game!! People never disappoint me…they are such a bunch of lunatics!!
