World Sepsis Day

We spent a full day yesterday during our awareness event against sepsis in Benin. After a scientific session at the University of Abomey-Calavi with the great support of the Mayor of Abomey-Calavi and authorities of University of Abomey-Calavi and the National Academy of Sciences, Arts and Letters, we walked for 7 kilometers in the town of Abomey-Calavi to create interest among populations. We visited a hospital to discuss with the healthcare people on our way. We finally came to meet the Mayor and gave him our engagement and collected his own one. We thank all our partners, the American Society for Microbiology, the Microbiology Society, the PSR Finland and the Benin National Academy of Sciences, Arts and Letters.
