Dental House Group Awarded Full Accreditation with the NSQHS
We are yet again facing another serious global threat. Just a few weeks later, the world has come to know a new virus that is continuously affecting thousands of victims today and is endangering millions more. This new virus is tentatively named “2019-nCov” or Novel Coronavirus, a virus closely related to SARS and MERS. The World Health Organization and other health experts are encouraging everyone to be vigilant with their surroundings and health.
