#Sepsis, the body's overwhelming and toxic response to infection, kills over 350,000 adults in the U.S. every year. Through public education, we can raise awareness of the signs and symptoms of sepsis so people in our communities know when to seek emergency care. Together, we can help save lives and limbs from sepsis. #SAM2024 https://lnkd.in/e--baXNq
