WTF? That isn't humor?
I was in 2 different hospitals lately. A nurse at the first one asked "Do you have AIDS?" I answered "No" The nurse at the second hospital went into a long speech that for certain treatments it might be necessary to ask me if I have AIDS. What a crock. While I may be hesitant to cuddle up to an AIDS patient, I would be equally hesitant with a tuberculosis patient. Something about fatal communicable diseases.
