Webinar on infection prevention and control for COVID-19 will be hosted on August 14, 2020, at 11:00 AM (UTC+1). Panel of speakers will be delivering their presentations on their recent research related to Infectious diseases prevention and control for COVID-19. The current state of knowledge, its impact on the future will be discussed in detailed. Meetings Int. invites all experts to be part of this webinar series and make it a perfect platform for knowledge sharing and networking.
who would like to join one. This webinar allowed participants to contribute to a global conversation on infection prevention and control for COVID-19 with at least one practical idea to advance covid 19 engagement in medication prevention and control understanding of the role and responsibilities of patients and families, different approaches to patient engagement, influencing factors and supporting resource and leading practices.
Coronaviruses are a group of related RNA viruses that cause diseases in mammals and birds. In humans, these viruses cause respiratory tract infections that can range from mild to lethal. Mild illnesses include some cases of the common cold (which is also caused by other viruses, predominantly rhinoviruses), while more lethal varieties can cause SARS, MERS, and COVID-19. Symptoms in other species vary: in chickens, they cause an upper respiratory tract disease, while in cows and pigs they cause diarrhea. There are as yet no vaccines or antiviral drugs to prevent or treat human coronavirus infections.
2. Bacterial and Viral Infectious diseases
A bacterial infection is a rapid growth of a harmful strain of bacteria on or inside the body. Harmful bacteria can cause a few illnesses like pneumonia, meningitis, and food poisoning. Bacterial infections are one of the main causes of foodborne illness. Common symptoms include nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, fever, chills, fatigue and abdominal pain. Most of the sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) are caused by harmful bacteria. Most of the times they are not related to any symptoms of the disease but still can cause significant damage to the reproductive system. Bacterial skin infections are generally caused by gram-positive strains of bacteria such as Streptococcus and Staphylococcus. Some of the bacterial infections include boils, impetigo, and folliculitis. Viruses are like hijackers. This can slaughter, damage, or change the cells and make sick. Different viruses attack certain cells in the body such as the liver, respiratory system, or blood.
3. Vaccine Development
A vaccine is a biological preparation that provides active acquired immunity to a particular infectious disease. A vaccine typically contains an agent that resembles a disease-causing microorganism and is often made from weakened or killed forms of the microbe, its toxins, or one of its surface proteins. The agent stimulates the body's immune system to recognize the agent as a threat, destroy it, and to further recognize and destroy any of the microorganisms associated with that agent that it may encounter in the future. Vaccines can be prophylactic (to prevent or ameliorate the effects of a future infection by a natural or "wild" pathogen), or therapeutic (e.g., vaccines against cancer, which are being investigated).
4. Diagnosis, Management and Treatment of Infectious
The most essential reasons for sepsis are pneumonias, trailed by intra-stomach and urinary tract contaminations really, the high utilization of endovascular prosthesis and gadgets speak to an imperative hazard factor of disease and its intricacies. Microorganisms are the most widely recognized reason for sepsis, both Gram-positive and Gram-negative. Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus pneumoniae are the most well-known Gram-positive detaches, while Escherichia Coli, Klebsiella spp., and Pseudomonas aeruginosa are the most spoken to among Gram-negative segregates. There is an expanding job of methicillin-safe Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), in hospitalized patients, yet in addition in network gained contaminations. Until 2016, sepsis was characterized as a "Foundational incendiary reaction disorder (SIRS) with a recorded disease" while extreme sepsis was characterized as "A fundamental provocative reaction disorder with a reported contamination, identified with organ disappointment, hypotension or decreased tissue work.
5. Epidemiology
The study of disease transmission is the investigation of the circulation and determinants of wellbeing related states or occasions (counting illness), and the utilization of this examination to the control of sicknesses and other medical issues. Different techniques can be utilized to complete epidemiological examinations: observation and expressive investigations can be utilized to think about dissemination; diagnostic investigations are utilized to contemplate determinants.
6.Pathogenic Infections
One of the commonly seen bacterial infections is tuberculosis with the utmost risk factor, affected by Mycobacterium tuberculosis bacteria, which kills about 1.5 to2 million people a year, frequently in sub-Saharan Africa. Pathogenic bacteria subsidize to other globally important diseases, which include pneumonia and foodborne illnesses. Pathogenic bacteria can also be the reason for the infections like tetanus, typhoid fever, diphtheria, syphilis, and leprosy. Pathogenic bacteria are also the reason of high infant mortality rates in developing countries
Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is an infectious disease caused by a newly discovered coronavirus.
Most people infected with the COVID-19 virus will experience mild to moderate respiratory illness and recover without requiring special treatment. Older people, and those with underlying medical problems like cardiovascular disease, diabetes, chronic respiratory disease, and cancer are more likely to develop serious illness.
