部分原文報道如下:
Hundreds of lives have been saved by Australian hospitals that have managed to slash the number of people catching infectious bugs while in care.
However, rates still vary widely between hospitals, leading the National Health Performance Authority to warn hospitals with higher rates that they should learn from those wher infection rates are in some cases up to three times lower.
