When you get a needle stick injury, it&#8217;s not just about the pinch or the sting. That tiny prick might expose you to some pretty nasty stuff, like HIV, Hepatitis B, and Hepatitis C.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Think about it \u2013 nearly 385,000 times a year, healthcare workers in US hospitals have these heart-sinking moments with needles and other sharp tools.
