Microbes

[chickenfeet]

The current project is very hard work and very high stress and it gets to people. Fortunately the team is extremely talented and has a great sense of humour. For example, we have a fine collection of plushie microbes from www.giantmicrobes.com. This is mostly so that we can have conversations when visitors are around along the lines of:

"Who's got plague"

"I don't know but Rami's got ebola"

or

"I think Mark gave syphilis to Trish"

and so on.

I want us to get a bulk supply of MRSA to give to hospitals who successfully implement the expanded WTIS,
