Answer

A, B, C

Explanation

Non-inventory waste streams refer to waste that is generated within the healthcare setting but does not take the form of inventory items. These are typically waste items that are generated as a result of the daily operations of the healthcare facility. Among the given options:1. Containers that cannot be emptied or have residual pharmaceutical liquid, waste, reconstituted items etc. are considered non-inventory waste streams because they are waste generated from the use of pharmaceuticals and other items in the healthcare setting.2. Loose pills are also considered non-inventory waste streams because they are waste generated from the use of medications.3. Empty vaccine vials are considered non-inventory waste streams because they are waste generated from the use of vaccines.4. MinuteClinic waste is not a specific type of waste stream and without further context, it's not possible to determine if it's an inventory or non-inventory waste stream.Therefore, the correct answers are "Containers that cannot be emptied or have residual pharmaceutical liquid, waste, reconstituted items etc.", "Loose pills", and "Empty vaccine vials".
