Health Care Workers Cannot Be Fully Protected From Infectious Diseases, Says Medical Expert
Dr. Bonnie Henry from the British Columbia Centre for Disease Control said that expecting all health care workers to be completely protected from infectious diseases is unreasonable. Her comment was in response to a question about disease prevention posed by a member of the audience at the Institute of Medicine where a workshop on the H1N1 virus took place. Henry said that it was important that health care workers are educated on the risks of their workplace in terms of infectious diseases. (0:27)
