A biohazard can pose serious health consequences and contribute to unhealthy and dangerous environments. Biohazards come from biological microorganisms, medical waste, and sometimes caused by viruses, including COVID-19. Decontamination requires training and cleaning products that aren’t sold on supermarket shelves or in home improvement warehouses.
