Why take a bloodborne pathogens quiz

Bloodborne pathogens can cause life-threatening infections, so it’s critical that workers receive proper training in order to protect themselves and others in the workplace.

One of the most common bloodborne viruses in the world that can cause life-threatening liver disease and cancer is the hepatitis B virus (HBV). HBV is spread through contact with blood or other body fluids from an infected person. A person can become infected with HBV during tattooing, body piercing, or when sharing needles, razors or other sharp instruments with someone who has HBV. Currently, there is no vaccine to prevent HBV infection, but there is a vaccine to prevent hepatitis B disease. This has led to an estimated 1.4 million people in the United States with chronic HBV infection and over 5,000 deaths every year from hepatitis B-related liver disease.
