| Did you know that almost 10% of people who spend time in United-Kingdom
hospitals contact a nosocomial infection? (443,166 cases for 60,270,708
inhabitants)
Would you like to risk such a drama, for you, for your kids? NO
Check for the proper hospital to go to: HealthGrades -

Second that. Healthgrades is limited to U.S. hospitals anyway.
(Healthgrades mines the (free) CMS data and the (free) state
utilization data to sell (not free) reports that don't really differ
from the (free) reports on hospital quality that U.S. consumers can get
on medicare.gov., or via state look-ups of MDs that are happily
UPIN-specific.)

Good thing they do not try to do their own math. Obviously, they cannot add
2+2.
