An unsheathed needle left on a work surface can pose a risk of accidental needle-stick injuries, which may lead to the transmission of Infectious Diseases such as HIV or hepatitis. It can also cause cuts or puncture wounds to individuals who come into contact with it, potentially leading to infections or other complications. Proper needle disposal and safety protocols should always be followed to prevent such risks.
