The CDC defines universal precautions as:
“a set of precautions designed to prevent transmission of human
immunodeficiency virus (HIV), hepatitis B virus (HBV), and other
blood-borne pathogens when providing first aid or health care.
Under universal precautions, blood and certain body fluids of all
patients are considered potentially infectious for HIV, HBV and
other blood-borne pathogens.”
It is as it says…precautions that are to be used (universally) by
all workers who may come into contact with bodily fluid, as well
as any bodily fluids of all patients/clients are to be (universally)
treated as if infected.
