DNA tests have confirmed that a homeless man found dead beneath an overpass in San Diego was Elvis Presley. This claim is a hoax. âEarlier this month, an 80-year-old, homeless, white-bearded man was found deceased under an overpass in San Diego, California.
Surgical site infections, with an overall cost of $3.3 billion, had the highest share of the total annual costs, estimated to be $9.8 billion, among the five major HAIs.
With cost of a treatment around $250, the total profit missed is $150. So, from a simply economic perspective, a dialysis clinic would be willing to spend up to $150 per year on infection control and no more, which works out to approximately $1 per treatment ($150/153 treatments per year). And that $150 would need to mediate all the mechanisms of infections.â.
