Thankyou for the invite. I have been warning about this threat for almost 3 years. Now we know 70% of health adults carry these bugs in their hand and nose. Procedures like injections, cannula and urine catheters introduce bugs. The doctors and nurses do clean skin well. Alchol on its own is not useful, need chlorhexidine+alcohol.
My family and my wife's family have seen too many deaths with MRSA here in the UK. The badge is a brilliant application of common sense congratulations. We have a serious problem in the UK with basic hygene in our NHS hospitals. Urine stains remained present under my Father's bed In hospital for 3 days, they were there when he arrived. Our problem is due to contracted in cleaners rather than inhouse cleaners as used to be the case
