Thousands of Colorado residents could be at risk of HIV or hepatitis after a local dentist was found to have been reusing dirty sedation syringes on patients for nearly 12 years.

State health officials are warning patients of Dr Stephen Stein to get tested after a probe revealed the rogue dentist used the same syringes and needles for multiple patients to give intravenous medications, including sedation, between September 1999 and June 2011.

OMG, those poor people! Now they face a long wait, and countless tests to ensure they are free of any diseases.

How could no one have known this was happening? This man should be jailed for life for what he did.
