What should you do first if you get blood or potentially infectious materials in your eyes, nose, mouth, or on broken skin?

  1. Apply antiseptic

  2. Immediately flood the exposed area with water

  3. Seek medical attention immediately

  4. Wipe it off with a cloth

The correct answer is: Immediately flood the exposed area with water

If you get blood or potentially infectious materials in your eyes, nose, mouth, or on broken skin, the first thing you should do is immediately flood the exposed area with water. This helps to wash away any potential harmful substances and reduces the risk of infection. Applying antiseptic or wiping off the area with a cloth is not as effective as flooding with water, as they may not completely remove the substances. It is also important to seek medical attention as soon as possible to evaluate the situation and take any necessary precautions.
