Clean indoor Air Protects Patient with Cancer
Improved hygiene programs are good for everyone. But they are especially beneficial to those with a compromised immune system. COPD, diabetes, cancer, asthma make a segment of our population more vulnerable to serious illness and disease. The studies linked immediately below illustrate that those suffering from cancer and who are being treated for it are at a greater risk of secondary infection. It is critical to be diligent concerning hygiene and infection control, particularly when it comes to the environment that cancer patients live in. Improved hygiene will help keep people with compromised immune systems healthy.
