Dentists?

[GSDgirl]

The general opinion seems to be that dentists are a front runner  (after IVDU)  causing the spresd of hep c.  Is there any scientific data to back this?  Just curious

Yeah, I know... Can't believe it is right of him either, cause there is a law in Norway that says all treatment related to contagious deceases is payed by the government. Had to go to the dentist very often because of trouble with my gums during treatment, so I thought social wellfare would pay for that.

Marte  totally I'd find another dentist that is prejudice plain and simple. Creep!  Creepy McCreepster Creep!

What 'extra' perparements making sure he is doing it right? That he should be doing for EVERYBODY.

That's awful, what your dentist did to you. So many people don't know what the heck they have and for all we know, he himself could have HCV.

Makes you not even want to tell them..!
That's terrible...

I told my dentist I had HCV. After I told him this he always scheduled me in the end of the day. He also gave me a higher bill because of the extra preparements he had to do. I asked him "Why do I have to pay an extra 600 NOK (99.81 USD) pr. visit for being honest, while you have lots of patients who doesn't even know they have HCV? Shouldn't you treat every patient as if they were infected?" He couldn't give me a proper answer to my question...

Scientific data to me at least =P Hehe...
