Drug addicts in Fiji injecting others blood

Checkpoint - A podcast by RNZ - Mondays

Drug addicts in Fiji are trying to get high by injecting blood taken from someone else who's used methamphetamine, according to a drug harm prevention agency. The practice, known as "blasting" or "bluetoothing", emerged as rates of methamphetamine use skyrocket in the island nation. It also comes after video recently circulated online of a naked woman begging for a hit prompted Fiji's Prime Minister Sitiveni Rabuka to urge citizens not to even think about trying drugs, Caleb Fotheringham reports.
