What about spread prevention...Cepheid (CPHD) equipment allows 1-hr on-site nose-swab testing for MRSA (no lab required) of all hospital admissions. The equipment is in usse now at VA hospitals and allows for isolation of MRSA carriers as well as active MRSA cases. At least we might not catch MRSA in hospitals then.
