Yep, folks, that is not a misprint! Illinois is about to pass a bill that will require all hospitals to test high risk patients for MRSA!! What a difference from where I live and have to explain what MRSA is to ER attendants! Could this be the beginning of a dream come true? Is this country going to publicly recognize the fact that we have a serious problem with MRSA? Could it mean that doctors everywhere won’t treat us like we’re talking about the common cold when we express fear about MRSA? Is this the beginning to the end of the war with MRSA? I don’t know about you but I think I am going to write to all my state’s people and brag about the measures being taken in Illinois like it just became the greatest state in the nation!
