We are excited to announce a webinar to launch a new EWTB white paper about keeping healthcare workers and patients safe from airborne pathogens.
Over 65 million people earn their living has healthcare workers, and billions of people rely on their expertise, skills and professionalism to stay healthy. Unfortunately, spending time in healthcare facilities also comes with risks, including the unseen threat posed by pathogens like TB and COVID-19 which can spread through the air.
Basic infection prevention and control (IPC) standards are lacking in many healthcare facilities around the world, with airborne IPC being particularly neglected.
Join us for a conversation with experts from around the world about the risks we currently face, the leaders showing the way, and what role the TB community can play in ensuring #SafeAirNow, for everyone.
