Secretary
of Labor in
the U.S.A.
Plans to
Combat
Needlestick
Injuries

The Occupational Safety and Health
Administration is seeking to reduce the number of
needlestick injuries to healthcare workers. Such
injuries may spread illnesses and disease such as
hepatitis and AIDS or HIV. They have estimated
that 590,000 injuries occur from needlesticks
each year.

The Secretary of Labor, Alexis M. Herman,
announced his opinions regarding this issue in a
National News release on May 20, 1999. He
said, "Safer needle devices mean fewer
needlesticks for healthcare workers. It is time
to make sure that healthcare workers have
up-to-date medical devices that limit the risk
of needlesticks and the potential for
developing deadly diseases such as AIDS and
hepatitis."

OSHA is taking many steps to reduce the risks of
healthcare workers contracting such diseases
from needlestick injuries. The report has indicated
that proper training, education, and the use of
safer medical devices have proven to play an
important role in reducing such risks.

OSHA Administrator, Charles N. Jeffress stated
"Health care workers strive to keep us
healthy. We now have an opportunity to
provide them with protection from the hazards
of sharps and needlestick injuries that can
threaten their heatlh and well-being. It's time
to move forward."

OSHA National News Release, U.S. Department of
Labor, Office of Public Affairs, USDL: 99-145,
Thursday May 20, 1999
HIV via Needlesticks: How can
it be prevented? In many cases, the
spread of HIV can be prevented. Prevention
of HIV transmission to health care workers
and care givers include the use of a safety
syringe, safe work practices that do not
allow the recapping of needles, (i.e. the
L.O.M. Retractable Syringe) and the use of
personal protective equipment like masks,
protective eyewear, and vinyl gloves (a lot of
allergies occur from latex). Also, in drug
users, a safer retractable syringe like the
L.O.M. Retractable, would not allow the
sharing of needles as the syringe
automatically retracts the needle and locks it
into it's own sealed chamber. This would
prevent a lot of drug users who are infected
with HIV or Hepatitis from spreading this
disease via their needlesticks.

L.O.M. Directors' Meeting: On
September 25th, 1999, the Directors of
L.O.M. Medical International Inc., met in
the Vancouver office boardroom for a
scheduled board meeting. The topics
discussed included: the annual audit and
interm financial statements; reports to SEC.
and NASDQ; reports on J. Alexander and
Thomas Stepp pertaining to commencement
of trading; quarterly and anually financial
projections; report on negotiations with
banks & brokerages; commencement of
publically trading; share sales; production &
marketing; new products; newsletters and
correspondence.

Odds n' Ends: The
company is presently
promoting its Eye Care
Products in the United
States.

L.O.M. is in the final
stages of taking on
another product line for
North America that has FDA approvals and
DIN Numbers for the U.S. and Canada.
This Product is presently being marketed in
Europe as a medical, pharmaceutical, and
"hospital use" product. The product line
deals with skin disorder treatments, and has
proven to be very effective in the treatment
of Psoriasis, Eczema, and Acne. It has also
proven to be very effective for use on burn
unit patients.

From The
President?s Desk

Our Valued Shareholders: I would like to take this
opportunity to update you on some of the events that have
taken place since our last Newsletter. These events are
very exciting and encouraging for a start-up Company such
as L.O.M. Medical International.

We are attracting high profile investors who are well
known by the medical industry, as well as medical
publishing journals that very often influence the brokerages
and market makers who are out there promoting our stock
to the various fund managers. This is becoming more
evident as the company is getting closer to trading.

At our September 25th , 1999 Board of Directors
Meeting held in our Vancouver Office, I reported our
position to the Board in regards to trading. The company is
presently cleared to commence trading, and can do so,
once the Board gives me the vote to go ahead and trade.
The Board reminded me that certain objectives would
have to be met before their approval to commence trading
can be given, namely that the Offering Memorandum for
the one million shares at $5.00 U.S. be placed. The
Boards position on this matter was well supported at the
Annual Shareholders Meeting, which was held in Kelowna
on April 23, 1999.

There are several companies we are negotiating with
regarding the placement. L.O.M. Medical is currently
negotiating with a New Jersey brokerage firm, who are
major market makers for the Eastern United States.

Sincerely,
John Klippenstein,
President & CEO
