Patients of retired dentist warned of bloodborne viruses, including HIV
Authorities urged patients to get tested due to “poor infection control practices” at the Australian clinic.
“The poor infection control practices at Dr Tam’s practice means all former patients may be at low risk of a blood borne virus infection, which can have serious and long-lasting health impacts,” Dr Leena Gupta, the public health clinical director of the Sydney Local Health District, said in the ministry statement.
