Biomedical waste management is a critical aspect of public health and environmental protection. Despite regulations, improper disposal persists, posing significant risks. Lack of segregation leads to hazardous contamination, attracting disease vectors like flies and rodents. Improper recycling practices, such as inadequate sterilization of medical equipment, exacerbate health hazards. Inadequate waste disposal systems contribute to pollution of land and groundwater, with dangerous waste often ending up in landfills near hospitals. Addressing these challenges requires concerted efforts, including strict enforcement of regulations and promoting the availability of authorized recycling services for safe disposal of biomedical waste.
