For the USA, I'm concerned because usa hospitals have no public disclosure of their routine tests of sanitary conditions in hospitals. There is no public disclosure of hospital rates of , for example numbers of patients infected with mersa.

Hospitals seem to make a lot of 'mistakes'. Resulting in infections of their hospital patients.

"accidental exposures" as you called similar 'mistakes' by professionals.

no, no one does autopsies on All USA deaths. my point is plenty of people can die from hospital Sunlei Aug 2014 #10
