Answer:

Consult labels or instructions before disposing of it. Always wear the proper personal protective equipment. Put all cleaning paper towels in the trash

Step-by-step explanation:

Gloves should never be removed when disposing of waste, since these can contain infected fluids or even cultivated microorganisms that are pathogens for our lives and can enter through a lesion of the continuity solution of the epithelium in our hands.

In other words, if there is a wound, and it is contaminated with waste by not wearing gloves, the risk of contracting diseases is much greater.
