subject: Medical Case (HIV) - Hospital Premises Liability [print this page] Instead, the jury heard about how the rooms Jane routinely cleaned were rooms used at the medical facility to treat AIDS/HIV patients and that the medical staff had a history of improperly disposing needles and other medical paraphernalia.
