Dear colleagues,
I am pleased to bring you the latest update on the 5 May 2018 campaign.
Our campaign webpage has been updated almost on daily basis so please bookmark and stay tuned:
http://www.who.int/infection-prevention/campaigns/clean-hands/5may2018/en/
The latest newsletter is attached here for your reference, thank you for disseminating it/the messages to your country offices and other stakeholders.
– it includes a motivational message from Prof Didier Pittet.– it also outlines the plans for social media which are:
“WHO will be active on social media on 29 April to prepare people for the campaign day and then between 3-5 May in order to promote the campaign to a worldwide audience. The main hashtags are #handhygiene and #sepsis – using the WHO promotional photograph board (http://www.who.int/infection-prevention/campaigns/clean-hands/SelfieBoard2018.pdf) and sharing photos using the #s will mean they will be captured and featured on a dedicated website managed by Professor Didier Pittet. http://www.CleanHandsSaveLives.org Never underestimate the role that social media can play in the reach of the global campaign and on-going commitment to hand hygiene in health care.”
The WHO campaign acknowledgement page has been updated. If your organization features a web link to the WHO campaign, WHO will feature it here:
http://www.who.int/infection-prevention/campaigns/clean-hands/SLCYH_support/en/
The list is getting longer and longer. Please help disseminate our messages.
Information in other languages are being updated including the infographics on how to prevent sepsis as well as the campaign posters.
While not solely 5 May 2018 resources, I alert you that:
– a brand new fact sheet on sepsis has been launched – this is a great resource given fact sheets are the most accessed on WHO web pages http://www.who.int/mediacentre/factsheets/sepsis/en/
– the meeting notes from the sepsis technical expert meeting in January have also been posted http://www.who.int/servicedeliverysafety/areas/sepsis_meeting2018/en/
We will contact you again next week before 5 May.
Lets make a big buzz for the campaign success and to save lives. Its in your hands prevent sepsis in healthcare
Best wishes,
