The World Health Organization has found that three-fifths of HAIs are caused by drug-resistant bacteria.
Dr Andrew Walker, an expert in health economics at Glasgow University, highlighted the problem in a report on hospital-acquired infections (HAIs).
Generational theorists Mike Hais and Morley Winograd attribute this to several factors.

His study, commissioned by the Pharmacia drugs company, suggests the problem of HAIs is a far bigger cause of bed-blocking than delayed discharges.
Experts currently use a 'guesstimate' that 5, 000 deaths per year are caused by HAIs, and it is a contributory factor in around 15, 000 more.
Hais and Winograd add they will need to redefine their party as more open, and appeal to the millennial preference for local, grassroots solutions.

According to Winograd and Hais, millennials may have been reared in a way that makes it impossible for them to conduct business negotiations in an entrepreneurial manner.
In addition, behind them lie the large cohorts of millenials, who according to surveys conducted by generational chroniclers Morley Winograd and Mike Hais, prioritize the ownership idea even more than their boomer parents do.
Hais, who co-wrote Millennial Makeover: MySpace, YouTube and the Future of American Politics, have observed that millennial "mellowness" can be traced to child-rearing patterns marked by feel-good toddler shows like Barney ("I love you, you love me", etc.) Moreover, they add, millennials seem devoid of an impulse to fight and prove their superiority over others--not a surprising outcome when everyone gets a trophy.
