Final Answer :
B
Explanation :
Applying PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) is a specific action rather than a general guideline. General guidelines for disease prevention and safety are broader recommendations, such as regularly washing hands, maintaining clean environments, or using PPE when in contact with potential contaminants, not only for cleaning up spills.
