World Sepsis Day

Lodged by Annie Wells Standard Motion 34 supporters

The motion

That the Parliament acknowledges World Sepsis Day on 13 September 2021; understands that this World Sepsis Day marks the 10th anniversary of the event; further understands that sepsis arises when the body’s response to an infection injures its own tissues and organs, which may lead to shock, multi-organ failure and death, particularly if not recognised early and treated promptly, and notes that the day hopes to increase public awareness and show support for people who have lost loved ones, or are sepsis survivors.
