I also want to add, people should not spit evey where.
Use of tissue papper instead of handkerchief, should be motivated to decrease risk of infection spread.

[@yourmywish]

Thanks for the video. Why urine bag or catheter is included in red bag and not in yellow bag and incinerated?

[@drlabmedinfo]

Urine bags and catheters are infectious material made up of plastic and on incineration it releases toxic fumes. So, it cannot be incinerated. Yellow is basically for anatomical waste, which can be incinerated.

[@mariaszigety376]

The colour coding for waste is based in Hospitals in USA, America ? Which country if not? I am in the UK.

Hair should be discarded in which bin

[@explorer3]

Yellow

[@drlabmedinfo]

Correct answer:
1. Infectious/ probably Infectious hair (used in laboratory/hospital/ other health care facilities): to be discarded in Yellow bin
2. General hair (used after combing at home) is a domestic waste: to be discarded in Black bin
