2019 UK Infection Prevention Society Annual Meeting, Liverpool, England: Day 1

It is great honor to be a part of the UK Infection Prevention Society Annual Meeting.
Thank you to the conference organizers for the generous invitation.

Today's presentations were high quality by an esteemed group of peers from the UK and beyond. Themes included opportunities and challenges for the the advancement of infection prevention and improved disinfection of patient rooms.

My plenary lecture was titled, How Much Can We Prevent and How Hard Should We Try, based on this published manuscript.

The afternoon was followed by a symposium lecture on active detection and isolation for C. difficile. I will wrap up today's obligations as a poster session discussant, in the late afternoon.

Images from the day are below.  

As always, I learn much more than I contribute at these events.
