Is diabetes a blood borne pathogen?

No, diabetes is not a blood borne pathogen. Blood borne pathogens are microorganisms that are spread through contact with infected blood or bodily fluids. Examples of blood borne pathogens include HIV, hepatitis B virus (HBV), and hepatitis C virus (HCV). Diabetes, on the other hand, is a chronic metabolic disorder characterized by elevated blood sugar levels. It is not caused by an infectious agent and cannot be transmitted through contact with blood or bodily fluids.
