Used blood collection needles are considered sharp biohazardous waste and must be disposed of in a sharps container. This container is specifically designed to safely contain needles and other sharp medical instruments to prevent needle-stick injuries and cross-contamination. It is usually puncture-resistant, leak-proof, and labeled with a biohazard symbol. The incorrect options listed are not designed for the containment of sharps and could pose a risk to healthcare workers and patients.
