Abstract

Infectious diseases provide an opportunity to recognize the need for infection control in medical institutions, leading to the enactment and revision of related laws. We examined laws and public notifications such as the Medical Service Act and Infectious Disease Control and Prevention Act in chronological order and propose the direction for future amendment of laws and public notifications.

Keywords: Healthcare-associated Infection, Infectious Disease Control and Prevention Act, Medical Service Act
