BANDAR SERI BEGAWAN, Oct. 14 (Xinhua) -- Haji Mohd Isham, Brunei's minister of health, said on Sunday that strengthening partnerships in infection prevention is a shared responsibility.

"By forging partnerships between healthcare institutions, government, non-profit organizations, and communities, we can create a network of support that responds swiftly and efficiently to outbreaks," the local daily Borneo Bulletin quoted the minister.

The minister said at the International Infection Prevention Week in Brunei that new technologies, such as rapid diagnostics, advanced disinfection methods, and artificial intelligence for monitoring infection trends, are crucial in moving the needle forward.
