Accuracy of religious document against condoms (14)

Dear Daniel,
Re: your query on HIV transmission
I know, for example, of a US researcher who recently received a large
grant to "study the potential" of HIV transmission via tattoos in
prison (rather than the obvious issue of anal intercourse among in-
carcerated men). Does anyone out there know of any documented cases
where transmission has occurred through such non-sexual/non-IVU/non-
transfusion routes?
On page 7 of this months' edition of eUpdate (Health Systems Trust's
monthly newsletter) briefly discusses this issue in the context of the
practices of Traditional Healers in South Africa. eUpdate can be ac-
