May 4. Talk show host Star Jones refuses to talk about how she managed to lose more than 100 pounds. But tabloids have reported that Jones achieved her massive weight loss by undergoing gastric bypass surgery at a San Diego hospital.
MediaTakeOut.com has just learned that the hospital where Star is reported to have undergone the surgery is warning its patients that they may have been exposed to HIV. Administrators at Scripps Memorial Hospital in San Diego told patients yesterday that because a nurse failed to properly clean instruments used in stomach-reduction surgery, they may have been exposed to the virus.
According to Don Stanziano, a spokesman for the hospital, "the risk (of HIV exposure) is extremely low but to be safe and take every precaution, we are having blood drawn and tested." Stanziano also told MediaTakeOut.com that state health officials are investigating the nurse's failure to properly sterilize the equipment.
Scripps Memorial Hospital is one of the leading hospitals in the area of weight management. The hospital gained international recognition when it cybercast the gastric bypass of former football star Anthony Davis.

As soon as my sister read this story she looked at me and said that it looks like this may be some sort of a coverup.
