Simple measures lessen hospital-acquired COVID-19 infections
“People shouldn’t die or have medical complications from a COVID-19 infection they caught in hospital, and hospital workers shouldn’t have to take sick leave due to a COVID-19 infection they caught at work.”
In a new study published in the Journal of Hospital Infections, Burnet researchers found simple infection control measures could save lives and reduce costs for hospitals.  These measures include testing patients for COVID-19 on admission, requiring staff to wear N95 masks in clinical areas and using Rapid Antigen Tests (RAT) or Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) tests to prevent transmissions.
