International Journal of Infection's Open Access Initiative

The advent of online publication has greatly improved access to scientific content on a global scale. This has led to calls from the academic community for research publications to be made freely available online and immediately upon publication, without the barrier of paid subscription to access.

In response to these calls and following consultation with journal contributors, the Editors of International Journal of Infection launched an Open Access initiative in 2022. This means manuscripts submitted and accepted after peer review will be published in International Journal of Infection with open access under the CC BY license.
