Thanks for the article. It is quite detailed and disturbing. Sounds like they really gave him several of the strongest antibiotics with no effect. So it's either a virus, or a super-resistant strain.

Not that long ago, they were talking about a super-resistant bacterial infection in So. California. (It's not the same as this, those were some staph infections outside the hospital).

And while I was trying to look up those articles, I came across this interesting one. It's about wounds, but I wonder if it would help if taken internally. I guess if we can't get antibiotics, we can stock up on honey.

Honey kills antibiotic-resistant bugs
Chronic wounds could benefit from traditional medicine.

I wonder if our standard pneumonia shot will deter this thing at all? I have a daughter flying to Europe during Spring break.
