AMV student gets HIV in Recto - Welcome to the HIV World by Jeremiah Kriziah Bataller

The incident allegedly happened in Recto, one of the most crowded places in Manila.

The unseen person with a syringe was possibly walking with the University of Santo Tomas Alfredo M. Velayo (AMV) College of Accountancy student, who was about to buy a book in the busy place of Recto.

As she walked by the pedestrian lane, the victim felt a sharp prick and stabbing puncture to her arm, according to the post of Bataller.

Here is the full post of Jeremiah Kriziah Bataller.

I just heard the craziest, sickest, scariest thing so far in my young life. People, most especially students, know Recto as one of the busiest, most crowded places in Manila. A good market for cheap books, students flock to the area with hopes of saving money. But then after hearing this story, I don’t know if the money’s worth it.

An AMV student went to Recto to buy a book, and as she was walking with the crowd, she felt her arm grow a little heavier. When she looked to check, she saw a syringe plunged in her arm with a note that said “Welcome to the HIV world”. At first, she thought it was nothing; a prank made by attention-seekers. She decided to have herself checked in the UST Hospital, just in case. Her result was HIV positive.

It sounds like a horror story, I know. Almost unreal. But you can be sure I’ll be keeping myself away from crowded places for awhile.

The viral scare story is now making rounds on social media sites with thousands of likes and shares.
