Or the frequent drug user who often has casual sex? Activities where they're not exactly going to be in the most rational frame of mind to be safe etc. It kind of speaks for itself.

That's like saying anyone can be burned by fire in their own home by matches or kitchen equipment. It's all the same chance. Well it isn't, that doesn't mean there aren't people, like firefighters, who obviously have a MUCH higher chance of this happening.

The firefighter who frequently takes drugs, has casual sex and plays rugby on the weekend though. :omgno:

i wasn't talking about casual sex and needle drug use.. i was just comparing it to the using a straw up your nose drug use that he was claiming is risky behavior.

obviously anyone who shares needles and has unprotected sex is a million times more ub danger, but that wasn't what i was referring to, i was referring to the claim that sharing a straw to sniff drugs can give you aids, and i rightly pointed out that that is not really risky behavior.

I wasn't claiming anything, it's a fact. I don't really get what you're finding so difficult to understand in what I've said. It can take the smallest bacteria to infect someone, and blood on a straw or a note that is going up another cut up nostril is enough to transfer disease, hence the test.

But who's blood is more likely to give you some yucky infection? A rugby player or a drug addict? :hee:

well considering the kind of risky sex rugby players are known to enjoy off of the field, definitely the rugby player.

At no point in the test was I asked if I play rugby. Maybe the NHS is missing a trick there.

The lining of the nose is very thin, it's why they give kids flu innoculations nasally it is absorbed straight into the bloodstream.
The risk playing rugby? With the dirt and the sweat and the moisture and the fact your blood is flowing out of a wound not in....virtually non existent.
Which is why rugby players aren't in the group of those at risk.
