I think all patients should be tested upon arrival for HIV and hepatitis, sexually transmitted diseases and pregnancy...and then be given an automatic flu shot.......there......

you can fix stats all you want but the fact of the matter is that people get the flu whether they get the flu shot of not......

as it stands right now, anyone with any disease can come into the hospital as a visitor with any kind of disease....

and when you put someone in "isolation" say for MRSA, there is no legal way to prevent them from walking the halls, visiting the public bathroom or using the water fountains.....
