Answer:

D. You will be OK if you follow standard precautions and use protective equipment to avoid contact with blood and body fluids when providing care.

Explanation:

HIV is transmitted through body fluids, so the care giver (nurse) would be protected by avoiding contact with blood and body fluids.

HIV is not transmitted through eating utensils or saliva. HIV is also not airborne, so wearing a mask is not necessary.  

Avoiding contact with blood and body fluids will protect the nurse and her pregnancy.

What could her providers have done to make the sharing of information easier for marsha?
Kruka [31]

Marsha's medical professionals could have made it simpler to share her information by using a secure website like the Virtual Private Network (VPN). In order to weather the economic ups and downs, a municipal medical institution in a city of 100,000 inhabitants decided to diversify.

Data interchange between multiple companies, people, and technologies is referred to as information sharing. There are various forms of information exchange, including: information that people exchange. Information sharing is crucial to enabling early intervention to assist kids, teens, and their families who require extra resources to achieve successful results, which in turn serves to lessen inequality between disadvantaged kids and other kids.
