is people really getting attacked with HIV
infected needles according to this misleading story.
Mad men are injecting HIV Platt into unsuspecting movie cores
and random you people dancing in bars or a rates.
It's notes verifies that this story is false.
The true part is that this story has been
decades among cultures and it is only a mother recounting
of an urban legend about a I. D. S.
Terrorists randomly pricking victims with HIV infected needles in public places.
The target of this history is the young people who usually go out for late nights and
they are frequently the most m bars or rates
this story has been circulating since the nineties.
So there are two cases that are supposedly
related to this story and I say supposedly because
none of them proved to involve any known only
intent to infect an innocent victim with HIV.
The first case is about men in Louisiana who sat
on a needle in a theater in December 1996.
And the second is about a woman woman who reported in
2005 that she sat upon a needle that had been duct tape
to a movie theater seat.

in the woman case.
The syringe contained a substance that appeared to be dried blood,
but it was too small a sample for police to
determine what it was or whether a career are disease.
The message got amplified by people Harriet and
of carrying out of their houses and when the story got to social media,
it amplifies even more reaching a wider audience.
I would classify this story as mass information.
It is not based on true facts and it was made to scare people but not to hurt them.
And plus
people are sharing this story unknowingly just to protect the people they care of.
