One more thing that I would like to emphasize is that Toronto is so concerned about its image and tourism, that they are doing everything to cover up the problem. Why would you become lax on your infection control protocol?

They do not want tourists to come into the city and see people with masks on; even in their hospitals they are pretending that it doesn't exist. Their Govt. sponsored Health Care is making the problem worse by trying to cover up the problem in the first place.

What reasonable medical facility will let up on an Infection Control Protocol unless they are trying to pretend it doesn't exist?

Agree completely. I worry that our HMO's may fail to meet the challenge for the same reason.
