Scientific prevention of blood-borne infectious diseases

Blood-borne infectious diseases refer to diseases that are transmitted from person to person through blood. For diseases transmitted through blood, the pathogens mainly exist in the blood. Common blood-borne infectious diseases include hepatitis B, hepatitis C and AIDS. How to prevent blood-borne infectious diseases?

First of all, you should go to a regular medical institution for medical treatment. When you receive an injection, infusion, tooth extraction, acupuncture or surgery, you should make sure that the medical equipment has been strictly sterilized, or use disposable clean and hygienic products of reliable quality, otherwise you should decisively refuse to seek medical treatment.

Secondly, do not share toothbrushes, razors, eyebrow trimmers, acne needles and other daily items that may pierce the skin or come into contact with blood with others.

Also avoid direct contact with other people's blood. If you must rescue others, use clean paper towels, handkerchiefs and other items, or wear sanitary latex gloves to handle.
