Microorganisms that are carried in the blood that can cause disease in humans
![Page 6: WHY THIS TRAINING? OSHA & Texas Department of State Health Services Bloodborne Pathogen Standard OSHA and TDSHS requires anyone whose job may result in](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062517/56649edf5503460f94befbde/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)

• Following symptoms may be warning signs of advanced HIV infection:
– Rapid Weight Loss Dry Cough– Recurring Fever Profuse Night Sweats– Fatigue Swollen Lymph Glands– Diarrhea for more than 1 week Pneumonia– Red, brown, pink, or purplish blotches on or under the skin or inside
the mouth nose or eyelids– White spots or unusual blemishes on the tongue, or in the mouth or
throat
