Infection control protocols are designed to minimize the risk of healthcare-associated infections and to respond effectively to outbreaks. This field continually evolves to adapt to emerging infectious threats, emphasizing education, surveillance, and the implementation of evidence-based practices. Rigorous infection control measures not only protect individuals from illness but also contribute to overall public health by curbing the dissemination of contagious diseases.
