In one of the most disturbing medical scandals to emerge this year, more than 300 children have tested positive for HIV after a hospital reportedly reused syringes. Details of the investigation reveal what Greek outlet Ethnos described as “hair-raising findings.” While the full scope of the outbreak — including the country and hospital involved — is still being reported, the sheer number of pediatric infections points to systemic negligence on a staggering scale. The case is a grim reminder that basic infection-control failures can unleash epidemics, particularly among the most vulnerable patients.
