About the Cover

As shown on our cover, hotels often settle for cleanliness versus sanitation, but our feature in this issue, 鈥淪anitary Status and Incidence of Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus and Clostridium difficile Within Canadian Hotel Rooms,鈥� highlights the dangers of that kind of approach. The authors sampled various surfaces from hotel rooms in three cities in Canada. Coliforms were recovered from 36% of surfaces and oxacillin-resistant bacteria were recovered from 19% of surfaces, with 46% of isolates confirmed as methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus. The results of the study show that more emphasis is needed on sanitizing surfaces in hotel rooms rather than simple cleaning.
