The total number of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus bacteraemias in England in April to September 2005 was 3580. The corresponding figure for the same time period in the previous four years was 3616 (2001), 3584 (2002), 3749(2003) and 3525 (2004). The number of MRSA bacteraemias in the first four complete years of the mandatory recording system were 7247 in 2001/02, 7372 in 2002/03, 7684 in 2003/04 and 7212 in 2004/05. http://www.dh.gov.uk/PublicationsAndStatistics/Publications/PublicationsStatistics/PublicationsStatisticsArticle/fs/en?CONTENT_ID=4085951&chk=HBt2QD The Office for National Statistics data revealed that between 2003 and 2004 the mentions of MRSA on death certificates increased by 22% to 1,168. It does not necessarily mean the superbug was the cause of death, just that it contributed to it MRSA was mentioned on two out of every 1,000 deaths certificates in England and Wales, the statistics showed. But it was cited as the underlying cause on 360 - up from 195 in 2000. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/health/4742770.stm So what else should I be looking for aside from MRSA ? Graham

That means that the customer's first switch has to be ISDN for his area to be an ASDL capable area. THEN his Plain Old Telephone Service line will do DSL.
