James-A lot of it has been caused by Doctors giving bad treatment . . .
...and patients not following directions. For example- antibiotic resistance is HUGE! Over medicating because "Mom" wants an antibiotic for a sore throat caused by a virus vs bacteria. Plus,
many on Rx stop taking antibiotics before the full 7-10 day run causing the surviving bacteria to become stronger (think Darwin)and resistant to the medication. Patient education is really lacking in this area.
In hospitals, staph infection is a leading cause of death. Where is Phi Mu Nursie?
As a side note, when choosing your topic, it might be wise to pick one that hasn't been done to "death" yet has tons of information.
Good luck! You have a big pool of topics, let us know what you decide! This is interesting!
