September is Sepsis Awareness Month. This year also marks the third anniversary of CDC’s Get Ahead of Sepsis educational effort.
Each year, at least 1.7 million adults in America develop sepsis, and nearly 270,000 Americans die as a result. Anyone can get an infection, and almost any infection, including COVID-19, can lead to sepsis.
In these unprecedented times, it is vitally important for people to know how to prevent infections that can lead to sepsis and recognize the signs and symptoms of sepsis. This Sepsis Awareness Month, spread the word about sepsis—you may save a life.
