Make Retractable Safety Needles Mandatory In Healthcare Settings
The Issue
Nurses, physicians and health care workers suffer an estimated 800,000 accidental needle stick injuries every year in U.S. hospitals. Many become infected with deadly diseases like HIV and Hepatitis. A hospital in San Antonio, Texas used this needle one year and didn't have ANY puncture accidents!! This will help stop the spread of deadly diseases!!!
