Star Jones exposed to HIV

[teforde23]

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.

Nice shitty hospital!

CLEAN YOUR SCALPELS, DAMMIT!

Do you mean a cover-up so if she ends up HIV positive she can blame it on the hospital and not GayAL?

I don't like Star, but if this is true, it makes me feel bad for all the patients that might be effected.

I would be BEYOND pissed if I caught HIV or anything for that matter because of someone's laziness/incompetence. There's enough to worry about when going in for surgery, the last thing anyone should have to worry about is whether or not the damn instruments are sterile!

But anyway, if she did get it, we know it ain't from no damn dirty instruments. Who the hell does she thinks she's fooling.

Thanks for adding the source for me, I completely forgot. And yes, I did mean that this would be a convenient coverup for Al giving her some sort of disease. I'm just waiting for the announcement

[MrsMarsters]

and next she'll almost end up with ebola.

[Grimmlok]

oh she's already had ebola. I mean how else would you explain her face.

...right?

Star may get HIV from promiscuous Gay Al (assuming the gossip I read somewhere that he likes male prostitutes is true) but I doubt she was exposed to it in this way.

[MrsDark]

She should have had BigGayAl tested...

[Glasgow53]

Wait a minute, you guys are all assuming she had sex with Big Gay Al. I don't think that is possible. She must have gotten it somewhere else.

[MrsDark]

At the very least, she's swapped spit with him. (Yes it a IS possible mode of transmission).

[Glasgow53]

Oh yes, that is true, I had tried to block that picture from my mind.

[Sojiita]

At the very least, she's swapped spit with him. (Yes it a IS possible mode of transmission).

NO known cases of HIV being transmitted through kissing.

Well, she looks like a man. Maybe he got drunk and she took advantage of him and let him ride that big nasty hershey highway of hers.
