We'd all be dead as a door nail from worse diseases than what we already have I believe.

But again - nobody REALLY knows. And if they did I have a feeling they wouldnt tell us...it would cause a worldwide panic.

after the little buggers drink the HCV infected blood their livers blow up before they have a chance to bite someone else. LOL
seriously, there have been studies on this and they concluded that it is not possible.
