Milla said:IIRC the HIV survives a tremendously short time outside the body, which is why you don't hear about people, say, getting infected after stepping on a piece of glass. I'd be interested to see any documentation of someone being infected via food.
This is correct. The reason people can get it from the dentist or doctor is because of needles, which hold the blood in a sterile environment. If a dirty needle is used, you may get it. If someone bleeds on an unsterile environment (like food) and then gets to you, nothing will happen. Maybe if the guy cuts himself getting tomatoes, and directly after, cuts a customer, bleeding himself a little into the customer's cut, the customer will get HIV.
Sorry, this is not grounds for firing. We could play the "what-if" game all day, but this guy was still fired illegally and needed medical insurance to survive. He got his money, and we should let McDonalds pay by giving them less business and not working there (I would never go so low as to work there).
