Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Contaminated items should be disposed of in leak-proof plastic bags with the BIOHAZARD symbol to prevent the spread of potentially infectious material. Melt-away bags may not be sufficient to contain the contaminants, trash containers may not be properly labeled or secure, and flushing contaminated items down the toilet can cause plumbing issues and potentially spread disease.
