Fascinating article, but there's NO WAY that Reuters had that much contact with state public health folks without being aware that they track lab results. Misleading!
This shouldn't be surprising. Imagine if Reuters wrote an article that said:
- Everyone acknowledges that superbugs are an issue
- Hospitals are doing their best with their limited resources, but overall are capturing a good deal of data
- The data systems are old, but the CDC can get the data and with some manual work process it, but it takes time
- Everyone agrees that more could be done, but they also agree it's complex and nothing is perfect.

No one would read the article!!
