PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a needle covering member which can protect a needle tip, when carried to a patient with its syringe containing fluid to be injected, and which can retard re-exposure of the needle having been covered with the needle covering member even under external loads. SOLUTION: A protector 32 is provided with a housing opening (32a), a stopper portion (34a) for preventing the protector (32) from turning in such a direction as to expose the needle (10), once the protector (32) has been turned and covered the needle (10), even under external loads, and manipulation pieces (34) for releasing the protector (32) from the stopped state so as to make the needle (10) having been covered with the protector (32) available. The stopper portion (34a) is formed at the housing opening (32a) side ends of the manipulation pieces (34) and intersects the needle (10) or a needle hub (11) in the interior of the protector (32). |
