Which of the following diseases is NOT considered a bloodborne disease?

  1. HIV

  2. Hepatitis B

  3. Hepatitis A

  4. Hepatitis C

The correct answer is: Hepatitis A

Hepatitis A is not considered a bloodborne disease because it is primarily transmitted through the fecal-oral route, usually by ingesting contaminated food or water. Unlike viruses such as HIV, Hepatitis B, and Hepatitis C, which can be transmitted through contact with infected blood and certain bodily fluids, Hepatitis A spreads due to poor hygiene practices rather than through blood exposure. This distinction is crucial, especially for individuals working in healthcare or emergency services, who must understand the modes of transmission for proper preventive measures and protocols. Understanding the transmission routes of these diseases helps in effectively controlling and preventing outbreaks.
