Infection prevention didn’t begin with modern laboratories, isolation rooms, or standardized PPE. It evolved over generations of observation, experimentation, and discovery.

During the plague era, protective clothing was designed around the belief that disease traveled through “bad air.” Centuries later, PPE looks a lot different.

The tools, and the science behind them, have changed dramatically. The goal has remained the same: protecting patients, healthcare workers, and communities.

Grab your colleagues and battle to see who can trace the outbreak faster, with today's activity: Outbreak Detective! https://hubs.li/Q04BgVkx0
