(***Please read all of it, and add if you would like***)

CPR: CPR is an emergency procedure for a person whose heart has stopped or is no longer breathing. When someone's blood flow or breathing stops, seconds count. Permanent brain damage or even death can occur. If you know how to perform CPR or Cardiopulmonary resuscitation, you could save someone's life. CPR can maintain circulation, blood flow, and breathing until medical help arrives. Even if you haven't had CPR training, you can do hands-only CPR for a teen or an adult whose heart has stopped beating. Hands-only CPR is not recommended for children. Hands-only CPR uses chest compressions to keep blood circulating until medical help has arrived. If you have had training, you can use chest compressions, clearing the airway, and do rescue breathing. Rescue breathing helps get oxygen to the lungs for a person who has stopped breathing. To keep your skills in good form, you should repeat the training every two years which is highly recommended.

AED: An Automated External Defibrillator (AED) is a medical device designed to analyze the heart rhythm and deliver an electric shock to one to restore the heart rhythm/beat back to normal. Uncoordinated heart rhythm is called Ventricular fibrillation. It's often responsible for sudden cardiac arrest, or sudden heartbeat stopping. Sudden cardiac arrests occur when ventricular fibrillation takes place or when the heart stops beating altogether. Without medical attention, the victim may collapse, lose consciousness, becomes unresponsive, and die. Many victims of cardiac arrest have no history of heart disease and are stricken without a warning. Chances of survival from sudden cardiac death diminish by 7 to 10% for each minute without immediate CPR. After 10 minutes, resuscitation rarely succeeds, and the patient or victim... dies.

Oh there have been plenty.

STI's for example including HIV (human Immunodeficiency virus) has definitely boosted the awareness of caution and avoiding risky behaviors in both sexual terms and reducing exposure to bodily fluid via blood in work, or IVDA (intravenous drug abuse) needle sharing.

Additionally potentially dangerous and very infectious diseases like the Flu have put an emphasis on the very basic disease prevention of washing ones hands, covering your sneezes, wearing face masks during exposure, and getting vaccinated as well.

And these are merely two examples of how hundreds of disease shaped out infection control protocols and norms.
