COVID-19 est une crise sans précédents. L’impact sur les filles et les garçons que nous soutenons est potentiellement dévastateur, car ceux qui protègen...t et s’occupent des enfants succombent à la maladie et les services essentiels sont interrompus. Cette crise affecte la vie de nos donateurs, de notre personnel et de nos proches. Pourtant, comme en de nombreuses occasions dans notre histoire, c’est en période de crise que Vision Mondiale révèle son meilleur potentiel.

According to WHO, infection prevention and control (IPC) is a scientific approach and practical solution designed to prevent harm caused by infection to patients and health workers. It is grounded in infectious diseases, epidemiology, social science and health system strengthening. IPC occupies a un...ique position in the field of patient safety and quality universal health coverage since it is relevant to health workers and patients at every single health-care encounter. Poor WASH and IPC lead to health acquired infections, transmission of diseases from health facilities to communities and increased use of antibiotics and exacerbate outbreak and spread of infections- in this case- COVID- 19. On the contrary, effective IPC reduces hospital-acquired infections by at least 30% (WHO 2016).
