Two S. Korean women contract AIDS virus through blood transfusion
Two South Korean women have been infected with the AIDS virus after receiving a transfusion of HIV-tainted blood, South Korean Red Cross confirmed Thursday. The unidentified women, both in their 30s, caught the potentially lethal virus through transfusion of blood donated by a 23-year-old man, identified only by his surname Kim, in August 2003, according to the Red Cross.

Over 1,000 transfusions of contaminated blood
Blood contaminated by diseases such as malaria, tuberculosis and dysentery has been used in 1,206 blood transfusion cases, according to the Korean Red Cross. "This happened because donors were not properly questioned in the process of donation and because the Korea Center for Disease Control and Prevention did not report the list of patients with contagious diseases to the Red Cross," Ms. Jeon criticized.

I am still looking for the addemdum:
"Kim admitted to having sex with foriegners, which is where he contracted the AIDS virus."
I'm sure it's on the way. |
