Sepsis is a life-threatening organ dysfunction caused by a dysregulated host response to infection. A wide range of pathogens can cause sepsis; in most cases, these are bacterial infections. Nevertheless, a good percentage of sepsis has a non-bacterial cause. In this webinar, we will discuss virus sepsis and fungal sepsis.
