An interesting story and I was confused where to put it. Thoughts?


WASHINGTON, 30 (UPI) -- A rare drug-resistant bacterium has spread throughout U.S. military hospitals around the world, killing at least 27 since the start of the Iraq war.

Acinetobacter Baumann has popped up in facilities like Walter Reed Army Medical Center in Washington and the Army's Landstuhl Regional Medical Center in Germany -- infecting an unknown number of soldiers’ and civilians’ bloodstreams, cerebrospinal fluid, bones and lungs -- The Los Angeles Times reported Sunday.

Wow. This is pretty scary stuff and they aren't sure about all the aspects of it.

All kinds of diseases are starting to break out in Iraq. They could very well end up with a major health crisis on their hands.
