This is what happens when a phlebotomist or nurse is being careless, or the patient is flailing their arms around. This is when your needle being used for a blood-draw sticks you and gives you whatever disease your patient has.
Phlebotomist: "That damn mental patient tried to attack me and ended up giving me a needlestick. Now I have AIDS."
