Giải thích
OSHA's Bloodborne Pathogens Standard prohibits recapping needles by hand and requires immediate disposal of contaminated sharps into a labeled, puncture-resistant, leak-proof sharps container. This prevents needlestick injuries and exposure to bloodborne pathogens such as HIV and hepatitis B. Bending or breaking needles is also prohibited.
