Hi guys…..I am in college and since this semester my new roomate seems to be getting sick pretty often….everytime she gets sick…I get sick….We don’t really have direct contact…Because I rarley stay in the room when she is there…. I spray everything that i own in my room down….Pretty much anything that she touches….I try not to touch anything with my bare hands if i do…i spray it down with lysol and use hand sanitizer…..I’m getting pretty disgusted by her sickness…n e ways…Can I get sick by my being in the room and breathing in the air….?…
Thanks
I also wash my hand pretty often
I also wash my hands pretty often
i am a student nurse.. i was clearing the things being used to a baby (20 days old), diagnosed with bacterial meningitis (specific bacteria, not identified yet). I was in a hurry when i was accidentaly pricked by a needle being used to the baby. I
I saw blood on my finger, i immediately squeezed my finger hoping all the blood being in contact w/the needle will come out.. i then washed my hands and applied sanitizer. Though i didn’t feel anything wrong in my body (yet), i am still very worried because some diseases like STDs can be easiy transmited by needle pricks.. i checked the internet, most says bacterial meningitis will be transmitted through direct contact w/patient (air droplets). None mention about needle pricks, u guys have any idea?
I need advise please.. i’m very worried! thanks!
