Too bad hospitals don't know how to clean.

They'd do well to replace all that stainless steel with copper or copper-bearing alloy for counters, sinks, faucets, doorhandles, etc. A copper bearing surface is a hostile environment to MRSA and many other bacterial pathogens.

Good point. Japan has had "bacteria hostile" surfaces in many public areas for years.
