Hospital-Related Infection — United States
Orange County’s public health officer ordered another shutdown Friday [16 Dec 2016] of the Children’s Dental Group of Anaheim [California], where dozens of children were affected by a bacterial outbreak. Eric Handler issued the order after tests still showed signs of bacteria [in the] office’s water system, even though it was recently replaced. “We have shut them down through a health officer order so we can do a thorough assessment as to why this has occurred,” Handler said.
