Conference proceedings: Preventing infectious intestinal disease in the domestic setting: a shared responsibility”

In 2000, the IFH held its first international conference in London, in collaboration with the UK Public Health Laboratory Service and the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, entitled “Preventing infectious intestinal disease in the domestic setting: a shared responsibility”. Focusing on the topic of infectious intestinal disease, the conference, through a series of presentations and poster sessions, explored each of the “core aspects” of home hygiene. The proceedings of the conference have since been published in the Journal of Infection 2001; 43(1): 21-102.
