Given the various predisposing factors that make humans susceptible to opportunistic infections, how can health care providers curtail the rising incidence of such infections

Respuesta :

Answer and Explanation:

Opportunistic infections happen when someone's immune system is so weakened that it can't fight microorganisms that are not pathogenic to an organism with a normal immune system. To prevent these infections from occurring, health professionals must take some measures. The main one of these measures is to maintain a very high standard of hygiene in all facilities, in the patient and in the hands of professionals when they need to touch the patient. This prevents microorganisms from coming into contact with the patient. It is also necessary for the health professional to indicate to the patient the intake of preventive medications and a diet that stimulates the strengthening of the immune system.
