PITTSBURGH – A Wyndham hotel alleges that it does not know how a hypodermic needle was found in one of its beds and struck an Ohio plaintiff, a needle the plaintiff claims potentially exposed her to HIV.
Dr. Elizabeth L. Bonds and Bryan Timpe of Columbus, Ohio first filed suit in the Allegheny County Court of Common Pleas on May 29 versus Wyndham Pittsburgh University Center of Pittsburgh and RLJ Lodging Trust, of Bethesda, Md.
“On Dec. 9, 2018, Dr. Bonds was an overnight guest at the Wyndham Pittsburgh University Center, staying in Room 229. When Bonds proceeded to get into the bed, she felt a pain in her left foot.

“We’re in a cluster of crisis,” said European Commission Executive Vice-President Frans Timmermans, in a March 2 virtual event hosted by Pitt’s European Studies Center. He cited the interlinked challenges of the pandemic, climate change and global relations among others as he continued: “We will need to face this perfect storm with an integrated plan.” Speaking from his home in Brussels, Timmermans, who leads the European Green Deal strategy for transitioning the European Union to a sustainable economy and climate neutrality by 2050, highlighted the need for environmental justice, critical thinking and education in a broad discussion in which he took questions from Pitt students and their peers at other U.S. college campuses.
