MRSA has been around for a long time now. My mom had it, acquired during her hospital stay.

IT's difficult to get a good feel for who has more since you have to figure that all countries do not provide information, nor do all hospitals or other health care facilities.

Personally, I think they try to keep that information under their hats. Same with bedsores. Aides will actually not report them and hospitals often send people back to facilities like nursing homes with active bedsores.

Disgusting situation.
