Recognizing Reality Taking Responsibility Finding Solutions

Infectious diseases kill millions of people every year. New infectious diseases are emerging and illnesses from the past are reemerging. Many existing antibiotics are becoming ineffective while development of new antibiotics is decreasing. Health care costs are staggering.



We are constantly challenged to find new and effective ways to outsmart the organisms causing infectious diseases. The Canadian Foundation for Infectious Diseases is taking responsibility to protect the health of Canadians and people worldwide.


There is a pressing need to introduce strategies that reduce the risk of developing and succumbing to infectious diseases. You can be part of the solution. Meet the people and companies who support our Foundation and learn how you can get involved.
