Transcript
The hepatitis-C virus can be transmitted by sharing
snorting tubes.
The hepatitis-C virus is wider spread and more
infectious than HIV.
Even small amounts of dried blood residue can lead to
a hepatitis-C infection.
Protective measures can easily be taken:
Use a clean surface. It is recommended to clean the snorting surface
with an alcohol swab before consumption.
Always use your own snorting tube.
Do not share your snorting tube with others.
Sharp edges of snorting tubes can cause lesions in your nasal mucous.
Do not use rolled-up bank notes for snorting. They might be contaminated
with germs and viruses.
Take care of your nasal mucous. Use saline solution nasal spray
after consumption.
