Okay. Who's handling the class action civil suit? My entire family is affected by this. I hope that there will be criminal charges filed as well. A member of my family has had two procedures done at this chop-shop within the time parameters. Now we both have to undergo tests. Who is going to pay for these tests? If we test positive, who is going to pay for our care? Yes, I have insurance, through the company I work for, but it is certainly not a policy I would have bought for myself. They are so Scrooge-like that I have to fight with them every time I have a routine doctor's visit.

This whole, disgusting thing is of course bottom-lined by greed. They saved a few bucks by subjecting their patients to life-threatening complications. 40,000 patients is not an innocent oversight. A decision was made by someone, and carried out by several others. In this day and age, who would even consider re-using needles to be a safe practice?

Outrage does not begin to convey how I feel when I think of the adders that head and staff our health care facilities in this state. How do we fight it, especially now that UHC is going to have a virtual monopoly here?
