Federal Government New Stimulus...............

After health care stimulus package of $ 14 billion which was distributed through NIH to academics and research institutes all over United States, Today one more Stimulus fund worth $40 Million was allocated for Hospitals across United States in helping them fight Healthcare-Associates Infection (HAI’s) including MRSA, this fund will be distributed by Centres for Disease Control and Prevention. The money will be used to establish or expand state and local efforts to reduce HAIs; with increase in use of disease surveillance systems that will help the local health workers to track HAIs, thereby leading to more hiring and training of public health workers who can promote HAI prevention efforts thus creating more job opportunities in state level. I hope we in India can implement something like this very soon :)
