When should you use a biohazard sticker when discarding items?

When contaminated by blood
When contaminated by chemicals
When contaminated by dust
When contaminated by hair

The correct answer is: When contaminated by blood

When discarding items that are contaminated by blood, it is essential to use a biohazard sticker. Blood can carry infectious diseases such as HIV or hepatitis, so it is crucial to label these items as biohazards to alert others of the potential danger. This helps ensure that proper precautions are taken during disposal to prevent exposure to bloodborne pathogens. The other options, such as chemicals, dust, or hair, do not typically pose the same level of health risk as blood when it comes to contamination. Biohazard stickers are primarily used for items that have been exposed to potentially infectious bodily fluids like blood.
