Thumbs down Infections

One of the bad score factors for TVRH is on the frequency of MRSA infections.

One of my doctors, who practices at TVRH, told me that most of the patients who contract MRSA infections actually get them from their doctors. It is often carried from patient to patient on the clothing (and the neckties) of the doctors.

This is in spite of the fact that there is a disinfectant dispenser in the entrance to every patient room at TVRH, and the doctors and nurses conspicuously spread disinfectant on their hands when they enter the room.
