MRSA Notes

Things that make you go Hmmmmmmm……

“Colchester General Hospital’s outburst comes after it found itself at the centre of an expose in a national newspaper which sent in an undercover reporter to gather swabs, which were later tested for the superbug.

The results claimed to show traces of MRSA on doors, lifts, in the men’s toilets and on a door handle at the entrance to one of the wards.

The accusations led to specialized hospital staff carrying out their own checks for MRSA in the same areas said to be affected and yesterday it was confirmed ‘absolutely no traces’ had been found.”
