How is an infection transmitted when a healthcare worker is pricked by a needle that was used on a patient?
Airborne transmission
Indirect transmission
Vector-borne transmission
Direct transmission
An infection transmitted through a needlestick injury is considered a direct mode of transmission because the infectious agent is directly transferred from one individual to another through contact. In contrast, indirect transmission involves an intermediate object or person, airborne transmission involves infectious particles in the air, and vector-borne transmission involves a carrier such as a mosquito.
