MRSA in Eire - not enough being done

Link: MRSA - not enough being done.

The vast majority of people believe that not enough is being done to tackle the spread of MRSA in Irish hospitals, according to the results of a new poll by irishhealth.com. MRSA, also known as the hospital super bug, is a strain of bacteria that is resistant to some of the most powerful antibiotics available. It thrives in hospitals where people are in close proximity and may have their defences weakened by illness. A recent survey by the Irish Patients Association revealed that in 2003, Ireland recorded the highest number of MRSA cases in Europe.
