ABSTRACT:
A protective cover for a syringe needle which maintains the sterility of the needle prior to use, is easily displaced with one hand in order to employ the syringe in the application of fluid transfer via its needle portion with the same hand, is readily repositioned back over the needle with the same hand, prevents reuse, indicates prior use, prevents accidental needle sticks, and is able to be manufactured cost-effectively.
