Which disease does OSHA NOT require routine testing for among dental healthcare workers?

  1. HIV
  2. Tuberculosis
  3. Hepatitis B
  4. Hepatitis C
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: A. HIV

OSHA's Bloodborne Pathogens Standard does not mandate routine HIV testing of healthcare workers as a blanket requirement. (Note: TB testing is commonly required by many state health departments or individual employer policies, and Hepatitis B/C testing become relevant specifically within post-exposure evaluation protocols following a specific exposure incident, rather than as routine baseline testing requirements under OSHA itself.)
