should "help" as verb always be used in the form "help TO do something"?

is the folowing sentence correct?

"they may help prevent death in cases that require antibiotics"

thanks, Alex

Hi,

Yes, that's correct. You can help someone/You can help someone to do something/You can help to do something/You can help the world become greener.
