In 2019, a novel coronavirus was identified, COVID-19. Coronaviruses are a large family of viruses that cause illness from the common cold to more serious disease like Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS).
COVID-19 is an infectious disease that can be passed from person to person through droplets produced when an infected person speaks, coughs or sneezes.
Infectious diseases, like COVID-19, are preventable. Infection control in the workplace aims to prevent pathogens from coming into contact with any person in the first place.
The ‘Infectious Disease Awareness’ course assists employees with understanding the COVID-19 outbreak and what they can do to reduce the risk of infection and where to get the most up to date information on COVID-19.
