Health-care waste contains potentially harmful microorganisms that can infect hospital patients, health workers and the general public. Other potential hazards may include drug-resistant microorganisms which spread from health facilities into the environment. (WHO)
Adverse health outcomes associated with health care waste and by-products also include: sharps-inflicted injuries; toxic exposure to pharmaceutical products, in particular, antibiotics and cytotoxic drugs released into the surrounding environment, and to substances such as mercury or dioxins, during the handling or incineration of health care wastes; chemical burns arising in the context of disinfection, sterilization or waste treatment activities; air pollution arising as a result of the release of particulate matter during medical waste incineration; thermal injuries occurring in conjunction with open burning and the operation of medical waste incinerators; and radiation burns.
