Various infections have been documented in children and adults all over India. Infants and preschool-aged children are very susceptible to contagious diseases either through contaminated hands, food, or polluted environment; awareness about these can play a significant role in helping to reduce or prevent the incidence of illness among children and adults in our community. Encouraging good hand hygiene, following safe food habits, and adhering to environmental sanitation contribute to a safe and healthy environment for children and adults.
