It is an essential though often under recognized and under supported, part of the infrastructure of healthcare delivery system rather than directed at society as a whole. Anti-infective agents include antibiotics, antibacterial, antifungals, and antivirals, and antiprotozoal. Aseptic technique is a key component of all invasive medical procedures. Similarly, infection controls measures are most effective when Standard Precautions (health care) are applied because undiagnosed infection is common. Infections can be avoided by boosting our immune system with the help of antibacterial foods and herbs. Infections can be prevented from occurring in homes as well. In order to reduce their chances to contract an infection, individuals are recommended to maintain a good hygiene by washing their hands after every contact with questionable areas or bodily fluids and by disposing of garbage at regular intervals to prevent germs from growing. Personal protective equipment (PPE) is specialized clothing or equipment worn by a worker for protection against a hazard. The hazard in a health care setting is exposure to blood, saliva, or other bodily fluids or aerosols that may carry infectious such as Hepatitis C, HIV, or other blood borne or bodily fluid pathogen. PPE prevents contact with a potentially infectious
