MRSA
Asked why the Government had ignored the proposals of Liam Donaldson with regards to MRSA, the PMOS said that far from ignoring the recommendations, the Government was taking forward those proposals for a Hygiene act, one that went further than originally anticipated, covering Nursing Homes and other residences. John Reid held a meeting yesterday with the regulators to develop that further. Far from ignoring the issue the Government was taking it forward. It took time to implement the decision because of all the regulations involved and because the Government was widening the scope of the institutions it applied to. MRSA was not going to be beaten by one single measure, but it would be beaten by a range of measures. There was an impressive list of measures the Government had taken.

Silly me - I didn’t know that the MRSA virus could read ‘legislation’.
Maybe TB could draft some Bird Flu legislation at the same time and then we could all rest easy knowing that we will never be infected with Bird Flu.
