Spread Ideas, Not Diseases

Controlling and preventing infection and the spread of diseases is more important then ever. Illness causes worker absenteeism, lost productivity, higher costs for medical care and unnecessary suffering among those who are sick. Here are just three diseases of particular concern today:

SEASONAL & PANDEMIC FLU are respiratory diseases caused by viruses. Seasonal flu alone accounts for about 36,000 deaths and countless lost workdays annually in the United States. Pandemic flu (such as H1N1) can affect millions. Flu is spread through coughing, sneezing and touching objects contaminated by the viruses.

MRSA (methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus) is a bacterial infection that is becoming increasingly difficult to treat. It is commonly found in hospitals and clinics, daycare facilites, schools, gymnasiums, military posts and many other locations with concentrated groups of people.

C-DIFF (clostridium difficile) is a bacterium that causes diarrhea and more serious intestinal conditions such as colitis. It is commonly acquired in restrooms, kitchens and hospitals environments, primarily through hand contact with the bacteria.
