Amplifying the risks inherent in drug-taking is “bluetoothing” or “hotspotting”, which involves drawing the blood of an intoxicated person and injecting into others to share the high – a trend that’s been seen in several countries over the past few years, including Zimbabwe and South Africa.
In Lesotho, hotspotting usually involves crystal meth, which has become one of the most common drugs in urban areas.

People who inject the blood of other people to get high. Jfc.
