Hoax St. Joseph County Health Department calls tell Hoosiers they might have HIV exposure
SOUTH BEND, Ind. — At least 10 people have received automated calls purportedly from the St. Joseph County Health Department telling them they might have contracted a sexually transmitted disease.
The health agency says the messages are a hoax and that it would never leave personal medical information on an answering machine or through an automated system. The calls reportedly tell people they have had exposure to an STD or HIV virus.
Health Department nursing director Barb Baker says at least some of those receiving the calls took them seriously.
She says the calls seem to have been made at random, going to people ranging from 11 to 70 years old.
