oz: if you credit -- have a wound that won't heal, it could be mrsa.luster is so powerful it can

. >> even if i have mrsa and stuff like that. >> mrsa was pushing the tipping point.t broke me. yes. i'm hoping to be with you again on new year's. >> they say -- >> i had a lot of comments. maybe i can sit in for her. this story is so stimulating that i got to get off i'm about to break up. one more thing is up next. i'm sorry. . >>> that time again time now for one more thing. we'll lead off with greg. >> how now when the economy is improving and things are getting back on track. when people start throwing birthday parties for baby hedge hogs like this one here. here we have the cake being made for the hedge hog. it's got the, all the trimmings and stuff. look at him go at it. i believe he's 1-year-old this baby hedge hog. they had cake, gift, a pinata filled with kibble. >> that's not a hedge hog. >> those are his mice friends. afterwards he ate both of his friends which happens at every birthday party. >> how charming. >> how offensive are you today? >> by the way, you see my new sign. >> god, no. >> they put this in the green room. >> i hate it. >> i stole it bec

most common pathogen recovered from patients with cuts and wound infections in the emergency room are mrsa. it's not too late. we know in cre we still largely are dealing with a hospital infection. we can keep it in the hospital. we can shrink the numbers and crow it. if we don't then common infections like urinary tract infections could be untreatable. to stop drug resistance we need fundamentally to do four things. first, we need better detection, second better control. third, better prevention. and fourth, more innovation. on detection, we need real-time systems to find out what's happening around the country. in fact, this week cdc will be launching for the first time a system that will allow any hospital in the country to track electronically automatically with no extra work after the initial uploading work all of the antibiotics dispensed in that hospital and all the antibiotic resistant patterns of patient whose have infections. that will allow doctors to be empowered with the right information at the right time to make the right decision so that they can give a patient antibiotics

we have already talked about tb and mrsa. >> we don't even know what all diseases they have. >> sexually transmitted diseases, they will give it to everybody else. >> georgia republican congressman phil gingrey is raising health concerns about the children as well. in a letter to the centers to disease control and prevention he cites concerns about swine flu, ebola virus an tuberculosis. >> yes, actual doctor an republican congressman phil gingrey says these kids could be carrying ebola. and yes t that virus has never appeared outside of africa, but gingrey may have caught it from an illegal already because i believe one of the symptoms is baseless fear leaking out of your ass. (laughter) but thank god-- (cheers and applause) folks, thank god that patriots all over the country have taken to the streets to protest these rabid-plagued children being spread by obama like festering stool samples across the petri dish of america. and again, and again, i love them. (laughter) one such patriot is arizona republican congressma congressman-- congressional candidate and human stubble farm adam kwa

coli in our intense i care units finish intensive care units but also like staph where we have mrsa. so there are a range of organisms for which we need better treatment, and we also need to understand them better. and the tools that we're now using of advanced detection are fascinating. we're learning that many of our assumptions were real simplifications, that if you have an innext, it may include not just one organism, but a broad range within that species, what is sometimes called quasispecies, and how we measure that in laboratory may be different from what's actually happening and causing illness in people. so there's a lot we need to learn about the patterns of disease not only within the population, but within individual people so we can innovate and target our innovations most effectively. >> perhaps the battle against high croak y'all resistance will have to be fought genetically, at the 40 lek lahr level. can you dress some of -- address some of the steps that are being taken into the molecular or nano level? >> i've mentioned cre a couple of times. let me give you a littl

because you don't necessarily have to say okay we want to look for for example mrsa or e. coli or this or that. we can say we're going to look for everything. >> the array can detect the signature of any bacteria or virus that's been previously sequenced, about 8,000 so far. biologist crystal jong says that includes potential threats unique to modern warfare such as biological weapons. >> because it's very comprehensive it covers the dna signatures for known and unknown as well for example anthrax. >> the array was able to flag previously undetected pathogens in about a third of the wound samples tested. analyst john allen says high-speed computer models can identify even tiny levels of bacteria before they grow into trouble. >> it's something that a low level that may be antibiotic resistant if you treat the wound with an antibiotic it could very quickly change and become the dominant organism. >> the livermore team believes the array could ensure u.s. soldiers receive the right treatments quicker to ensure the wounds they've suffered in battle heal faster and more effici

works 24/7 and our scientists protect americans from threats like ebola and mrsa and manmade threats such as anthrax. but we must do that work more safely, and we will. there's a recap of the recent incidents that summarized in our report, which has been completed and we are just at the outset of our investigation of the flu contamination. sterile. use of a strain when a nondangerous form would have been appropriate. in the flu cross-contamination, we are trying to ups how it it occurredtand how and investigating how there could have been such a long delay in notification. the risks to employees from the anthrax exposure was at most very small, and the risk of release to the public was nonexistent but that does not change the fact that these were unacceptable events. they should have never happened. in the past as the committee has outlined, there were a number of specific incidents, and i do believe that c.d.c. staff worked hard to address the specific findings of past investigations but i think we missed a critical pattern. instead of just focusing on those when we issued the anthr

mr mrsa meyer kicking off her comments at the top of the report saying we are not satisfied with ouri'm going to continue to dig through here and see what the guidance is, especially looking forward, and we'll be back to you with more. kelly. >> good stuff, julia. guy, thoughts on yahoo! here? i mean, do we talk about yahoo! or do witness talk about ali baba? >> we have to talk about both, but it's not a disaster. i think that's what people were just hoping it came in anywhere close, and it effectively does come in close. and again, this ali baba becomes a bit of an algebra problem for a lot of folks. what is the value of yahoo!'s business? what is yahoo! worth? i mean, right now, given the ali baba potential valuation, it's basically valuing yahoo! at zero, which i've got to believe, just given an aol valuation, if you want to go there, it's worth a lot more. so, i'm still in the camp that $125 billion ali baba ipo gets you a $42 yahoo! stock. >> okay, we've got to go, but quickly from greg and david before we do, on second-quarter gdp. barclays raising theirs to 4%, their estimate

this way those mrsa bacteria which cause anti- resistant stf infections can't live under your fingernailsvery often in surgery a breathing tube will have to be inserted you say because of that we ought to go to the dentist and get our teeth checked. >> a month before your surgery is scheduled you at the present time visit the dentist. the reason is if you have any also teeth. loose caps or cavity, they can come out when they put that breathing tube in. you might aspirate a part of your tooth which is inthat i will into your lungs. you definitely dent want that. >> wow. check our medications? >> this is particularly important. you want to mexico to your surgeon all prescription and take things can thin the blood. aspirin, vitamin e, prescription medication as well. stop taking these medications about five to seven days before your surgery. >> we need to sleep on our back. even practice this ahead of time. >> 75% of us are side sleepers and the problem is that after surgery, sleeping on your side might put pressure on the area that you had the operation on and so if you practice sleeping on
