What is the second step of infection control?

Sterilization
Disinfection
Sanitization
Cleaning

The correct answer is: Disinfection

The second step of infection control is disinfection. This is because disinfection is the process of reducing or eliminating microorganisms on non-living surfaces using chemicals or other methods. Sanitization and cleaning are important steps in maintaining cleanliness, but they are not as effective as disinfection in eliminating harmful microorganisms. Sterilization is typically reserved for medical equipment and involves the complete destruction of all living microorganisms. Therefore, it is not the correct answer for the second step of infection control, as it may not always be necessary in a general infection control procedure.
