NHS at Bolton - there's two sides to every story

I've received some anonymous comments on the NHS Bolton/Toyota story - I think they're worth Blogging as they show that there are at least two sides to every story!

Superbug cases at hospital soar by nearly halfBy Jane LavenderTHE number of people infected with a potentially deadly superbug at the Royal Bolton Hospital has gone up by nearly half.Rates of Clostridium Difficile, which can cause severe diarrhoea and is especially dangerous to the elderly, have increased from 208 in 2004 to 297 last year, according to Government statistics.And the number of people infected with MRSA, which is an infection in the blood, has also gone up from 17 between April and September last year, to 19 between October, 2005, and March this year. From April to September, 2004, there were just 14 cases.

Well they can't take it down now can they. That would say even more.

I didn't mean to be anonymouse. I did log in to blogger or so I thought. Anyway, it's Jenny.
