On WORLD SEPSIS DAY, let's raise awareness of this life-threatening condition. Did you know that sepsis, often called the "silent killer," can develop from something as simple as a minor infection? Although it is more common in the elderly, infants, and those with weakened immune systems, anyone can develop sepsis, even from a minor cut or infection. Early detection and treatment are critical, and knowing its signs can be life-saving. Be safe!
