RE: Ambulances, Stethoscopes, Hospital Curtains: Beware of Fomites
That was a real eye-opener. I hadn't even thought about infection from sheets and privacy curtains. I'm very surprised they don't use ozone for laundry and cleaning. Probably because it's too cost-effective and there are no big bucks to be made out of it.
I wonder was the situation any better in the 70s and 80s when you had matrons in charge and hospitals at least smelt of disinfectant.
I was visiting my father in hospital a couple of years ago and the stench of urine in the ward was overpowering. When I entered, several of the patients including my father, had their bedsheets over their heads. I thought there'd been a mass geriatric cull.
Hi @deirdyweirdy,
An eye opener for me too. There was so much more, especially about sanitation. I had to stop my self from going into that. So many interesting ideas. I believe UV was covered.
The conditions your father had to tolerate---unforgivable. People have to be held to account. Is it money? Indifference?
You must have been so upset.
My daughter is like you...she loves the smell of bleach, because then she knows something has been sanitized.
Thanks very much for your support. Much appreciated. I hope you got that WeWrite story out. I think I'll just squeak under the finish line tomorrow morning (unless I got the time wrong). Mine is quite peculiar.
Be well. Be peaceful.

I love your very peculiar story. Unfortunately, we have gale force winds here at the moment and mine blew away.
At least the dog didn't eat it :)))
:) Unfortunately, I had to get rid of the dog.
