The group of diseases that are transmitted through our infection to a patient’s blood are called blood borne diseases or BBDs; viruses, bacteria and parasites can be transmitted through contaminated blood, but how do we know if we have BBD? What are Blood borne diseases symptoms?

In the following, we will say what the signs and symptoms of this category of diseases are

What is BBD?

The factors that cause this group of diseases or the pathogens that cause BBDs are small factors (microorganisms) that are present in the infected blood and cause a person to get sick.

These pathogens can be parasites, such as malaria, can be bacteria, such as brucellosis-causing bacteria, or syphilis, and most importantly, viruses that are transmitted and spread through infected blood, such as:

The last three are the most common blood borne diseases that many people are exposed to

 

AIDS and hepatitis

Infection with the HIV virus can lead to HIV / AIDS, but unfortunately there is no cure for HIV / AIDS.

Hepatitis C virus infection can lead to complete liver dysfunction or cirrhosis, or it can lead to infection of a person with deadly liver cancer.

In the early stages of infection with these viruses, the onset of appropriate and early treatment can prevent the occurrence of serious complications and symptoms of these diseases.

 

How long can bbd-causing agents survive?

BBD-causing viruses can survive outside the body for a few days, for example. In a dry blood drop of hepatitis C virus, HCV can survive for more than four days and retain its infectious power. The hepatitis B virus can survive in dried blood for more than a week while retaining its infectivity. The term can sometimes be used to describe diseases that are transmitted through other contaminated body fluids.
