Pondering vexing issues in infection prevention and control

IDWeek!
It has been a great IDWeek so far, with almost 7000 registered attendees. I've moderated and attended several excellent sessions that we'll be blogging on next week, when we have a few minutes to absorb it all! Susan Huang's presentation of the REDUCE MRSA trial results occurred today, so we'll no doubt be discussing how these data further support Mike's long contention that horizontal infection prevention strategies are superior for MRSA control. Yesterday we received an excellent update on the fungal meningitis outbreak from Tom Chiller, Carol Kauffman and Tom Patterson. Carol and Tom also just coauthored (with Pete Pappas) this summary from today's NEJM, check it out!
