Hospital-acquired infections: Hard to sue

Lawyers are withdrawing from these cases, citing a lack of evidence and patient misinterpretation:

For example, Thompson said one client complained that nurses weren’t washing their hands, and were instead using a sort of “mousse” — which actually was a hand sanitizer.
