The facts seem to be:

1. HIV in Fiji is up 10-fold from 2014 (that's a lot, but if the starting point was small, then it's hard to say)

2. 50% of people who contracted HIV said they shared needles (common issue, unrelated to "Bluetoothing")

3. "Bluetoothing" is a meme, and it sounds insane, and in some small sample in South Africa, 18% of drug users claimed to have done it.

4. In Pakistan, street vendors are selling pre-used heroin syringes (also insane - but needle sharing, not "Bluetoothing")

I mean, sure, this is news in the sense that it's insane. But the headline makes you wonder what's going on at the NYT.

Journalists getting news from tik tok.

When do we get the article about this article? That's more interesting, in a way.

If you mainline a half gallon of junkie blood, you should get a decent buzz. Just remember to check their blood type first, and to bring a large rug so you can dispose of their desiccated body afterwards.
