I saw one 30 minute segment last night that was really interesting. It focused on a Pittsburgh hospitals' efforts to eradicate the MSRA bug, something we talked about here. It seems one motivated doctor was really able to change the system (competition between hospitals, building a “business case,” etc.) and beat the bugs! It was great to see heroes in the making…
Recently, while working out at the health club, I ran into an exec from London. He was explaining how serious the MRSA bug was there – in some case, some hospitals were shutting down because of MRSA! Maybe our British members can comment.
Any way, to continue hijacking this topic, you can read up on MSRA on this past topic
here.
