CHS Deploys MED-1 To Aid Bed Shortage And High Patient Volume Due To Flu At Atlanta Hospital - WCCB Charlotte

Supposedly, the researchers at Carolina Health System which is a system of public hospitals in the South had the funding to study 448,000 patients trying to find discrimination in regards to antibiotic usage but they can't handle a massive hospital bed shortage they are dealing with.

So many "researchers" out there working for government hospitals studying silly crap, when the money could be used to buy more beds so patients aren't in pain waiting for a bed.

The research did not involve interviewing patients. It was done with chart review, utilizing an electronic medical record database.

I can tell them why more white kids get antibiotics. White soccer moms think they know more than the doctor and demand them. The docs eventually get worn down and cave in.
