A report by The Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) stated that per year, almost 2 million Americans contract an infection during their hospital stay resulting in an increase in almost $45 billion in medical expenses. Infections that can be contracted in medical centers include: Norovirus Bacterial infections Influenza (flu) Bloodstream infections Pneumonia Clostridium difficile (C-diff) Surgical site infections Often medical professionals do not identify that a patient has contracted an infection in time. This gives the infection time to become worse, often after the person has been discharged from the hospital.
