MRSA

I started this blog with the intention of not putting personal stuff into it. Last week there were reports of an item that could kill MRSA contamination , but the NHS werent interested. Then a couple days later there was a report saying that they'd found a way of disinfecting areas from MRSA [ apart from the usual idea of cleanliness]. So maybe the NHS was right ?????
Then Sunday I read a report that a major source of MRSA contamination is via ballpoint pens ![passing from nurse- nurse] and that cleaning up can help this deadly problem. [ wow thats a novel idea about health matters- cleanliness helps :~ ]
Meanwhile a friend dies from MRSA. Apparently it affects 8% of patients in the UK- sort of thing you dont want to get if you are so sick you need to go to hospital- especially as 5000 people in the UK die from it .........../ year
http://uk.news.yahoo.com/040714/140/exz0i.html is some of it
Grow Up Please our health service- not read reports from other countries about this - is it a problem ?
