    This Infection Prevention and Control (IPC) course by WHO is very informative and practical. It clearly explains hand hygiene, PPE usage, waste management, and other important safety protocols for healthcare workers. The course materials, videos, and PDFs are very helpful for learning and applying infection control in real healthcare settings.
