#BREAKING NEWS: A Woman Contracts HIV When She Got Her NAILS DONE At A DIRTY ASIAN NAIL SPOT! Warning Ladies; It’s REAL Ouch!

According to a report initially published by UK's top newspaper, the Daily Mail and republished by Media TakeOut.com, a 22-year-old woman was diagnosed with HIV after having her nails done at a dirty salon that used shared manicure equipment.

This is NOT RUMOR either . . . it's medical FACT. Doctors detailed the case in The Journal For AIDS Research and Human Retroviruses, a medical journal, and revealed NAIL SALONS as a new place for transmission for the virus.

The researchers, who claim that transmission through shared manicure equipment is a 'very rare event', reported that the woman was found to have advanced HIV even though she had none of the usual risk factors for acquiring the virus.

The woman NEVER had any sexual relations with men, and did NOT have any contact with bodily fluids. The patient did, however, shared manicure instruments years before with a cousin who was later found to be HIV-positive. Blood analysis suggested the woman contracted the virus around ten years ago.

Further genetic analysis of the viruses from both patients suggested it came from a common ancestor, indicating the possibility HIV was transmitted through the manicure instruments. Dr Brian Foley, of the HIV Sequence Database at the Los Alamos National Laboratory, said the case should not make people scared of contact with people with the virus, as the risk of infection is very low.
