During a hectic moment in the ER, Robin received a needle stick from a hyperdermic used on the patient. She later was diagnosed with Hepatitis B. This would be an example of what type of transmission?

Fomite Transmission

Explanation:

The type of transmission used as an example in this scenario would be Fomite Transmission. This is when an inanimate object that has been in contact with a disease becomes contaminated and then comes into contact with an individual. In this scenario, once the needle was used on the patient that had Hepatitis B it immediately became contaminated. Then by accidentally being stuck by the needle, Robin became infected as well as the disease was transmitted from the needle into her bloodstream.
