Some 7,000 dental patients in Tulsa, Oklahoma, may have been exposed to HIV and hepatitis over the past 6 years.

Mellisa Strom McJunkin‘s insight:

Shivers. The investigators said they left the office feeling physically ill. The conditions were disgusting and some of the drugs used in the practice showed experiation dates as far back as 1993. How does this happen? At least patients over the past few years will be offered tests to determine if in fact they had been exposed to deadly diseases.
