Infections Control And Contamination Of Daily Use Objects
ECCMID Opening Press Conference. "Microorganisms are everywhere. Bacteria and fungi contaminate our body, our houses (i.e. bedrooms, kitchens, and toilets) but also workplaces, pets and the whole environment" - said Prof. Andreas Voss (Canisius-Wilhelmina Hospital, The Netherlands). Fortunately, among many billions of bacteria, only 1,500 can be dangerous for our health, causing different diseases such as pneumonia or skin infections. "The real problem is that the number of bacterial strains which develop resistances towards disinfectants and especially antibiotics is increasing very fast", pointed out Prof. Voss. "Some of these resistant microorganisms are difficult to destroy, and can survive for a longer time on the floor and other surfaces". "This is the reason why just five years ago it was absolutely rare to find resistant bacteria outside hospitals or nursing homes, while resistant bacterial strains are now spreading also to our houses and other places where people live, work or spend their free time together".

Even Hollywood is getting in on the act: Natural beauty Kate Hudson has joined forces with hair guru David Babaii, whose client list includes Angelina, Uma and Gwyneth, to create a line of hair products that are "tested on Kate, not on animals." Hudson helped choose the ingredients for Babaii for WildAid's Hydrating Shampoo and Hydrating Conditioner, like volcanic ash from the Vanuatu Islands in the South Pacific, which is said to add volume to the hair, to butter harvested from the Amazon, used for its hydrating properties. (Proceeds benefit WildAid, an eco-force working towards ending the illegal wildlife trade and save endangered species around the world.)
