harm reduction never share

[adzket]

it is easy to say never reuse your pins but swim say's everyone has reused one in a time of need. however if in a house or place with multiple users how could you be shure the needle was one of swiys. so in the intrest of harm reduction swim told me about a scheam at there local needle exscange called never share where the have diffirent colored pins for each user in the house so whether partners house mates or alot of people injectig in one place each person can identifi there own needles theycome in about 10 diffirent colors as showen in atachment so swiyou can reuse safe in the nowlage are the only one who has ued it. even though it is of course best to use a clean one each time say's swim

Good idea, lot better than marking with a pen or tape.

This is a good idea.In the olden days when swim would have friends over shooting up everyone would write their name on their syringe to avoid any confusion.One can never be too safe when dealing with iv use.It is a very good idea however not everyone has access to this.So make sure swiy writes your name on on your rig in clear letters.Ofcourse dispose of it afterwards,the wrong person finding a syringe with swiy's name on it could be a very bad thing.

thats what i thought after speeking to swim also they said if there interupted and put there pin down they then no its there's so safe to use. also can be shurethey only reuse theres as them and partner both inject and friends also use at theres to so no mistakes can be made when run out of cleen ones.
