“What if you decide to classify hospital infections as terrorists?”

John Stewart-The Daily Show
Do you know anyone who got an infection at a hospital? I have a feeling nearly everyone in the USA does.

We lost Congressman John Murtha most likely because someone forgot to wash their hands or properly disinfect instruments.

When I flew in a Cessna 172 at a small airport in Virginia our pilot used a checklist strapped to his leg. He was a retired USAF Colonel that flew supersonic fighter jets. Pilots use a checklist before every takeoff. They did not use checklists until Boeing instituted them for the WWII B-17 bomber.

It’s time that Doctors and Nurses use a checklist.
