It’s Friday and here are the 5 things to know for your New Day.
SUPERBUG
Not coming clean: The superbug CRE outbreak that led to the death of two patients at a Los Angeles hospital was caused by two medical scopes that still carried the bacteria even after they were disinfected. The superbug had become “embedded” in the scopes, UCLA Health officials say. The FDA has warned this could happen. Seven people are known to have been infected during special endoscopic procedures. Over 100 more may have been exposed to CRE.
