Copper is used in hospitals for its antimicrobial properties. It is incorporated into surfaces such as door handles, handrails, and countertops to help reduce the spread of infections by killing bacteria and viruses on contact. This helps to maintain a cleaner and safer environment for patients and healthcare workers.
