Okay, good, someone is thinking rationally here.

These "OMG MRSA" bedbugs were found in a hospital. Resistant bacteria are much more prevalent in hospital situations than in the real world; even so, healthy people carry MRSA, too. Yeah, it's gross to think about, but for your average Joe staying in a hotel room, it's probably not an issue.

This nurse is overreacting.

In other news, OMG! Rat fleas can give you THE PLAGUE! Let's wage a war on rats! Nobody should ever use a subway to travel ever again! Never leave your house!
