What is claimed is: 1. A needle-stick protector for an intravenous catheter, comprising: a body having a first end and a second end, the body including a plurality of side walls extending between the first and second ends in a geometric configuration, the side walls defining an interior space and a first slot and a second slot, said slots each having a single locking portion adjacent to said second end; a needle hub positioned in the interior space of the body, the needle hub having a front end, a back end, a first side and a second side, the front end being adapted to receive a needle, the first and second sides each including a handle, the handle extending through the slots to positions outside of the body and consisting of a handle member, the handle member having at least one locking projection on the interior surface; a needle in communication with the front end of the needle hub, whereby movement of the needle hub from the first end to the second end results in corresponding movement of the needle into the body until the locking projection of the handle member irreversibly engages said locking portion, locking the needle in a fully retracted position with the handle; and a locking pin extending through the leur lock engagement and penetrating the catheter hub to prevent movement of a leur lock engagement that connects the needle-stick protector to a catheter hub until the needle is securely locked in the body. 2. A needle-stick protector for an intravenous catheter, comprising: a body having a first end and a second end, the body including a plurality of side walls extending between the first and second ends in a geometric configuration, the side walls defining an interior space and a first slot and a second slot, said slots each having a single locking portion adjacent to said second end; a needle hub positioned in the interior space of the body, the needle hub having a front end, a back end, a first side and a second side, the front end being adapted to receive a needle, the first and second sides each including a handle, the handle extending through the slots to positions outside of the body and consisting of a handle member, the handle member having at least one locking projection on the interior surface; a needle in communication with the front end of the needle hub, whereby movement of the needle hub from the first end to the second end results in corresponding movement of the needle into the body until the locking projection of the handle member irreversibly engages said locking portion, locking the needle in a fully retracted position with the handle; and a locking pin and a wire extending along the interior space of the body connecting an L-shaped pin at the second end of the body to the locking pin to prevent movement of a leur lock engagement that connects the needle-stick protector to a catheter hub until the needle is securely locked in the body. 3. The needle-stick protector for an intravenous catheter of claim 2, wherein the L-shaped pin moves from a first position to a second position when the needle hub engages the L-shaped pin. 4. The needle-stick protector for an intravenous catheter of claim 2, wherein the wire moves towards the second end of the body when the L-shaped pin moves from a first position to a second position. 5. The needle-stick protector for an intravenous catheter of claim 4, wherein the locking pin disengages from the leur lock engagement when the L-shaped pin moves from a first position to a second position. 6. A needle-stick protector for an intravenous catheter of claim 1 further comprising a cap located at the second end of the body. 7. A needle-stick protector, comprising: a body having a first end, a second end having a cap, and at least one handle, with the body defining a plurality of openings adjacent the second end; a needle hub including a plurality of locking means, the locking means being received by the openings to lock the needle hub into adjacent said second end and wherein the handle is at least partly covered by and locked into said cap: and means comprising a locking pin at the first end of the body that prevents movement of the luer lock engagement and a wire extending along the interior space of the body connecting an L-shaped pin at the second end of the body to the locking pin at the first end of the body to prevent movement of a leur lock engagement that connects the needle-stick protector to a catheter hub until the handle is at least partly covered by and locked into said cap. 8. The needle-stick protector for an intravenous catheter of claim 7, wherein the L-shaped pin moves from a first position to a second position when the needle hub engages the L-shaped pin. 9. The needle-stick protector for an intravenous catheter of claim 7, wherein the wire moves towards the second end of the body when the L-shaped pin moves from a first position to a second position. 10. The needle-stick protector for an intravenous catheter of claim 7, wherein the locking pin disengages from the luer lock engagement when the L-shaped pin moves from a first position to a second position.
