I haven't heard this, but your question is a great way to put the idea out there for some sicko to put into action.

I highly doubt it's true. There have been rumors like this circulating for years. The rumor back in the 90's was that people were leaving needles sticking up out of movies theater seats. Then people would accidentally sit on them in the dark. And before that the rumor was about people leaving infected needles in payphone change dispensers and such so that a person would accidentally prick themselves when reacing in. All false.

Urban Legend. Before AIDS, there was drugs. Everybody knows someone who knows someone who has been injected by something while in public.

I hope not altough ive heard rumors. I hear they are sticking them in soda machines too. Like they place the needle under and when you reach for your soda you get stuck with a needle full of aids. why would someone do this.

its an urban legend that has been circulating since the early 80's. There is absolutely no truth to it.

A rumor.
The AIDS virus usually dies in after being in contact with air.
