Topic: Infection control in next-gen hospitals
Key Highlights:

[2] Infections in the near future will primarily be aerosol-borne (droplet or airborne), contact-spread, vector-borne, and, in special circumstances, linked to bioterrorism
[3] We need to adapt, innovate, and find solutions based on basic principles to control infections in hospitals
