Join. Contribute. Make A Difference.

On November 15th we launched our site.  In short order we have received submissions from around the world, in multiple languages, on various topics, from individuals of diverse disciplines all related one way or another to infection prevention. The response has been both overwhelming and humbling.

InfectionControl.tips will never endorse a product, or censor meaningful discussion on any subject. We will fact check and edit for comprehension all submissions.  Part of the Pan-Access ideal that we are pioneering, is to provide a platform for everyone to meaningfully weigh in on the topics from around the globe and to make a difference locally.

Our goal is to break down the “silo” mentality and encourage independent thought

Our goal is to break down the “silo” mentality and encourage independent thought, collaboration, and critical analysis of ideas and advancements.  The world has multiple voices, yet we only hear from a few.  Opportunity and possibilities would be endless if we only communicated more effectively, by listening to others who are traditionally overlooked.

By creating a platform that is inclusive, we build appreciation of individuality, which promotes ideas and advancements.

The world today is approaching an historical, unprecedented moment

The world today is approaching an historical, unprecedented moment.  The reality of the misuse of antibiotics, the lack of development of meaningful tools and the actuality of climate change on emerging infections threatens each one of us.

The world needs a platform to honestly discuss what is happening, planned and imagined.

We are that platform.
