According to the recommendations of the Ministry of Health, the patient's waste, including the disposable material used by the sick person (gloves, handkerchiefs, masks), must be disposed of in a plastic bag (bag 1) in a garbage can arranged in the room, preferably with lid and opening pedal, without making any separation for recycling.

The plastic bag (bag 1) must be closed properly and put it in a second garbage bag (bag 2), next to the exit of the room, where the gloves and mask used by the caregiver will also be deposited and will be closed properly before to leave the room.

Bag 2, with the previous waste, will be deposited with the rest of the household waste in the garbage bag (bag 3) corresponding to the waste fraction bucket.

Bag 3 will also be closed properly.

Immediately after, a complete hand hygiene will be carried out, with soap and water, for at least 40-60 seconds.

Bag 3 will be deposited exclusively in the rest fraction container (or in any other collection system of rest fraction established in the local entity), it is strictly prohibited to deposit it in separate collection containers of any of the separated fractions (organic, packaging , paper, glass or textile) or its abandonment in the environment.

Household waste management in households without positives or quarantine

In the case of households without positives or in quarantine, the separation of the waste will be carried out as usual.

In order to minimize the remaining fraction (or dry fraction where applicable) that reaches the treatment plants, it is advisable to remind citizens of the importance of optimizing the separate collection of the different fractions (paper / cardboard, glass, packaging, organic where appropriate), and deposit in their containers only the waste corresponding to such fractions.

Finally, citizens are reminded that the latex or nitrile gloves used to make the purchase or other uses are not containers and therefore should not be placed in the light packaging container (yellow).
