as a co-owner of a tattoo studio in bali, this whole media thing has really affected our business, we have gone from being booked out to everyone on the street say NO YOU GET AIDS from tattoos??? i just wish they would NAME the so called studio that this person supposedly contracted HIV from, so the rest of the businesses in bali could get on with our lives. Its so unfair to the ones that do everything right and our open door policy for people to walk in and check everything and as you said the machine isnt even loaded until you are in the chair and the needles are opened in front of you and then disposed of into a sharps container after.
Its really unfair how the media canes bali and our businesses, unlike australia there is NO welfare payments here, so if we dont work we dont eat. i would just like to know WHERE and When this person contracted HIV, close them down. Do the right thing to the rest of us that are here trying to make a decent living. Anyway ive had my vent, i just know if the story is true and it was my son ...they would have been shut down and i would have caused mayhem. But to UN NAME them is not fair !!!
