'Cleanest' hospital's MRSA anger

Link: BBC NEWS.

A hospital which has won an award for its cleaning has been caught up in the row over misleading Tory MRSA leaflets. Party leader Michael Howard has apologised after several areas received the inaccurate mailouts last week. But Winchester's Royal Hampshire County Hospital, which has won cleaning's equivalent of the Oscars, is still writing to Mr Howard to complain. Other hospitals have also come forward to correct the leaflets which exaggerate the cases of the superbug. The leaflets, which have been sent to areas the party is targeting, gave regional figures for MRSA rates, but said they were just for the local NHS trust.
