Discarded Batch of HIV Tests Found Floating in Haulover Creek
Residents in the vicinity of Conch Shell Bay were disturbed this afternoon when they discovered medical waste floating nearby in the Haulover Creek. What made matters worse is that the refuse was a batch of discarded HIV tests, including needles and other related paraphernalia. It is unclear where the waste originated from and just how it found its way into the water. We note, however, that HIV tests are administered by various agencies.
