Hi John, Saw a piece in the SF Chronicle today confirming the NJ staph infection. The patient was infected with vancomycin resistant Staph aureus _and_ vanco-resistant Enterococci (VRE). VRE is one of the more "common" vanco-resistant strains. It is entirely likely that the vanco-resistance was passed to Staph, perhaps through genentic conjugation. Anybody else see the article on the resistant forms of the bacteria that causes the plague? I'll see if I can find links to these articles... John
