Answer:

Health care workers are unlikely to get blood borne illnesses from their patients because there are safety practices in place to minimise the risk of exposure.

Health care workers wear appropriate PPE (personal protective equipment) when dealing with patients who may be carrying a blood borne illness. They should be vaccinated against the blood borne pathogens that have vaccines developed.

Laxity occurrs when the ligaments from a joint are overstood what problems might arise from laxity?​
Bingel [31]
”Loose or lax ligaments in turn are not capable of supporting joints as effectively as healthy ones, making the affected individual prone to further injury as well as compensation for the weakness using other parts of the body. Afflicted individuals may improve over time and lose some of their juvenile hyperlaxity as they age. Individuals over age 40 often have recurrent joint problems and almost always have chronic pain. Back patients with ligamentous laxity in the area of the spine may also experience osteoarthritis and disc degeneration.

In the case of extreme laxity, or hypermobility, affected individuals often have a decreased ability to sense joint position, which can contribute to joint damage. The resulting poor limb positions can lead to the acceleration of degenerative joint conditions. Many hypermobility patients have osteoarthritis, disorders involving nerve compression, chondromalacia patellae, excessive anterior mandibular movement, mitral valve prolapse, uterine prolapse and varicose veins.”
