Excellent! But not before time. Research into HAIs has been starved of funds for far too long. CHAI in Nottingham University has also recently received grants for C difficile and other much needed research. Let's work together to eradicate these harmful bugs which can leave discharged hospital patients in a worse state than they were in before their operations and treatments.
