“Again,sorry. ‘
No problem——that must have been quite a stressful time for you folks in the medical field.
.
Stressful for sure.I was Administration so I didn't have direct patient contact.However,although many "civilians" don't know this needle sticks and other kinds of exposures are not uncommon in acute care areas of hospitals...ERs,ICUs,ORs,etc.When a physician,surgeon or nurse experienced a needle stick in our ER their fear was so thick you could cut it with a knife.One of the nurses I worked with *did* contract both HIV *and* Hep C from a needle stick during a code.
