Giải thích
Blood spills are absorbed first, sharp fragments are removed mechanically with forceps or a brush and dustpan rather than by hand, and the surface is then disinfected with an EPA-registered agent or freshly mixed 1:10 bleach solution. Handling glass with gloved hands risks a puncture and exposure. Plain water and air drying do not disinfect, and delaying cleanup leaves an active biohazard.
