TATTOO&#65533;S DEADLY LITTLE SECRET

That harmless little "innocent" tattoo may have a little secret hiding inside.

A very deadly little secret...

Underneath that harmless tattoo is a very serious risk of acquiring a deadly blood-borne disease such as AIDS, Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C, tetanus, syphilis, tuberculosis and other blood-born diseases.

An alarming research study recently published by Dr. Bob Haley and Dr. Paul Fischer at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical School in Dallas uncovered that the "innocent" commercial tattoo may be the number one distributor of hepatitis C. The study was published in the journal Medicine (Haley RW, Fischer RP, Commercial tattooing as a potentially source of hepatitis C infection, Medicine, March 2000;80:134-151). Dr. Haley, a preventative medicine specialist and a former Center for Disease Control (CDC) infection control official, is exceptionally knowledgeable to prepare the study.

Dr. Haley concludes, "We found that commercially acquired tattoos accounted for more than twice as many hepatitis C infections as injection-drug use. This means it may have been the largest single contributor to the nationwide epidemic of this form of hepatitis."

Incredible. According to Dr. Haley's research you are twice as likely to be infected with hepatitis C from getting a tattoo from a tattoo shop than shooting up dope! With over 20 million Americans wearing a tattoo &#65533; and growing by leaps and bounds &#65533; we are likely staring down the barrel of a mammoth deadly epidemic.

The study also found that people who get tattooed in a commercial tattoo parlor were nine times more likely to get hepatitis C! That's nine times more likely to be infected by a deadly, fatal disease. And Dr. Haley is not referring to "backyard-prison-tattoos " but a tattoo from a "sanitized" commercial tattoo shop.

Did you know the deadly disease hepatitis C kills over 10,000 people a year? And sky-rocketing... Currently 4 million Americans are chronically infected with hepatitis C and rising... And according to Dr. Haley, it's number one channel -- the deadly tattoo... Courtesy of your friendly commercial tattoo parlor.

There is the documentated case of a 22-year-old grocery store employee who simply received his $45 tattoo. And four weeks later – needed a liver transplant!(Mryna L. Armstrong and Lynne Kelly, Tattooing, Body Piercing, and Branding Are on the Rise, The Journal of School Nursing, Feb. 2001, Vol 17 No. 1, p.15)

When you consider hepatitis B can be transmitted with as little as 0.00004 ml of blood, and can live on blood contaminated surfaces, such as needles, tattoo machines, tables, etc. for over two months, the risk of hepatitis is very real indeed.

Target: Human liver
hepatitis C tattoo Because tattooing and piercing both cut through the protective surface of the skin, they risk infection. Historically, tattoos have transmitted such pathogens as syphilis, staphylococcus, HIV and hepatitis B. Now, there is suspicion about hepatitis C.

The various hepatitis viruses attack the liver, and cause jaundice, fever or even liver failure. The liver is the site of many biochemical reactions in the body; liver failure from cirrhosis kills unless a liver transplant is available.

You are definitely making a statement that you are a "LOSER" by doing this. And you are right. It is wasted college tuition because NO professional company is going to hire a person with a name or anything else tattooed on their neck or anywhere visible.

So again wasted government money being spent on their college tuition.

What I don't understand is why would a college student, who clearly cares about their future enough to go to college, get a tattoo on their neck?! At some point they are going to have to sit down on an interview. Who is going to hire them for any type of professional job with a big tattoo on their neck???

In my culinary profession tattos are generally accepted (as art pieces)..but a tat on the neck is like...wtf, did you get that in prison??? No I'd never..why???
But otherwise yep tatted for days, I can cover all of mine quite easily, and comfortably when I want to, if I wanted to.
Got my first when I was 15, Mexican hommie did it for me with a home made gun(battery and a pen or something). Now ((about)) 15 years later, still don't regret any of them. Some do, some don't. I think it depends on your motivations.
Don't judge, body ink has been around for thousands of years...

Did you attend cullinary school?

If so did you enjoy?

Was it tough or easy?

...curious:)

If I am a recruiter and get several applicants for a job, any of them with a tattoo get rejected outright. If does not matter whether you are black, white, asian, latino, man, woman, whatever.

Thats only from using shared or used "dirty needles" if the needles are fresh and unused then there is nothing to worry about!

You are only at risk of infection if you come in contact with infected blood. Since it is only *your* skin that is being pierced during the tattooing process, only *your* blood is being exposed. This means that the only person at greater risk is the artist, because s/he is the only one coming in contact with someone else's (potentially infected) blood. This is why reputable (and sane) tattoo artist wears surgical gloves while working. Another source of infection is through the use of infected tools.*This is why it is IMPERATIVE that you make sure your tattoo artist uses sterile equipment.* Needles and tubes need to be autoclaved before EACH AND EVERY time they are used. Ink should come from separate cups and not directly from the bottle. Any leftover ink should be disposed of and not reused under ANY circumstances.

lets see:

new needle goes into infected persons skin... new needle is then dipped into ink... now the ink has been infected.

Many people here would also agree that a white man has a better chance to get a job then a black man because of all the racism out there.. So why make it that much harder on yourself?
I have seen these neck tattoos on white people, but its always white trashy gangster wannabes, who also clearly have no future. But I see it much more often on black students.

Me too, most of the whites I see with these neck tats clearly have no future. But it just amazes me the number of black students *from nearly all walks of life* with these handicapping things on their neck...
