Wow! That's some scary shit... I'd be interested in knowing exactly what "unsafe practices" were used... Hep C isn't something to mess with. My uncle has Hep C, and he's already been informed that he'll probably have to have a liver transplant before he dies. Yuck.

It's at the bottom of the article:

The virus may have been spread when clinic staff reused syringes and used a single dose of anesthesia medication on multiple patients, the district said.

Gross institutionalized negligence needs to be dealt with in a way that ensures it will never be repeated. I hope it costs them plenty.
