CPHD going gangbusters on their quarterly results. They had to this to say regarding their MRSA product: "The increase in clinical sales was driven by market adoption of both the GeneXpert® System and the Company's menu of available tests, specifically the Xpert(TM) MRSA product. Nationwide Hospital Acquired Infection (HAI) initiatives have contributed to the market traction the Company is experiencing, the most publicized of which is the Veterans Administration (VA) initiative. Cepheid continues to experience success within the VA hospital group. Currently, approximately 40 percent of the Company's Xpert MRSA business is with VA hospitals, with the remaining amounts coming from other hospitals."
