For many years all hypodermic needles in the U.S. have been disposable one-use-only needles and all are sterile. So it's not that the prison is re-sterilizing old needles, they're just all new and come already sterilized. One might wonder what the situation was years ago when needles were reused and had to be sterilized on premise. My guess is back then execution was by electric chair or means other than lethal injection.

those days, each needle is obtainable in a sterile kit. After each use, they're thrown right into a sharps field to dodge every physique from getting caught by way of a contaminated needle. the full deadly injection technique focuses on being a humane way of killing somebody. you're meant to admire even a dying row inmate as a human, and so which you end their life in a fashion that does no longer torture or demean them. The deadly injection is rapid and painless. you may honestly might desire to place some attempt in to maintain grimy needles around, and it extremely could be demeaning and abusive. (btw, a contaminated needle does no longer retard the outcomes of the deadly injection)

Because it would be unethical to do otherwise, and because all needles are prepackage in a sterile wrapper. Old needles are discarded because they get dull after one use.
Also, if the technician inserting the needle were to accidentally stick themselves, one assumes that they would prefer the needle be sterile.

I think it may be due to the fact that they don't wanna be to the cause of the death, for giving any infection before the or after the death, cause if the family wanted to have an autopsy after the death, then they could be charged with the death, other than the leathal injection! sounds silly now that i have wrote this, but my best answer.

I think they do it because its procedure. Every time doctors use needles the sterilize them so it's probably force of habit.

Don't know, They should do away with "Nice" death sentences.
If you earned the right to die it should be a horrible death

Ethics/Morals, it's what makes the injector sleep at night.
