I stood on one at Ricketts South about 5 or 6 years ago, was not a fun experience. Fortunately the chance of contracting HIV from a discarded needle is pretty slim unless it has been very recently discarded. HepC higher risk.
I reported to Bayside Council, hopefully they take more care checking nowadays.
