The poor EMS crew that transported him ...... hope they dodge this bullet. A relative works EMS at a college - often ends up with vomit on the uniform & that’s just from kids under the influence.

That’s just the good, healthy vomit. This is devil-barf, vile, nasty, and poisonous.

There’s very little info around on disinfection and cleanup techniques. Does bleach work? How long do the viruses live outside of a body?

My SIL is an EMS tech. Got stuck with a needle the other night from an HIV guy. Happens too often from what I gather.
Yeah, he should have been a bit more careful but working in a pristine classroom verses working in the field transport and ER is a different experience than he expected.

Lets not forget that in olden days warring armies used to catapult dead bodies over the city walls as disease carrying weapons.
