Infectious

mind. Dr. Mejicano will help raise our awareness of infectious
diseases that can be transmitted at the point of care in
emergency situations. He will also discuss common and uncommon
infections found in Wisconsin, and describe the changing nature
of infectious diseases with regards to new and emerging
diseases. |
