In some jurisdictions, placenta are considered organs and thus their transport is regulated as with transport of other human organs. Sort of the same dynamic for its treatment as biohazardous medical waste.
It seems that the issues that your post are addressing are not the ones that are posed by the OP.

There is no requirement to ship one's placenta home after birth for fear of transferring diseases. Unless the family wishes to keep the placenta, it is detroyed with all other biomedical waste.
