Hospital Infections Kill 18 Babies in Jamaica

SAN JUAN – Outbreaks of bacterial infection at two Jamaican hospitals have claimed the lives of 18 babies since June, the government said Wednesday.

“I want to start by expressing my support to the families involved. As a father myself, I know what it is like to have a sick child, but I cannot begin to imagine what a parent goes through when they lose a child no matter the reason,” Health Minister Fenton Ferguson said in a statement.

Ferguson said the ministry has already sent teams to the University Hospital of the West Indies and the Cornwall Regional Hospital, where a total of 42 newborns were infected and 18 died.

The infections were caused by klebsiella and serratia, two common bacteria.

Most of the fatalities were premature babies.

The Health Ministry said it has taken steps to increase monitoring of sanitation practices, improve training of hospital staff and restrict items allowed into nurseries, among other measures.

Man Gunned Down in Mexico City

MEXICO CITY – Police found the body of a 45-year-old man in a Mexico City street near the bridge where a body was found hanging earlier this week, the Federal District Attorney’s Office said Wednesday.

The body was discovered Tuesday night in Iztapalapa, a borough in eastern Mexico City, with “gunshot wounds,” a DA’s office spokesman told EFE.

The killers left a message for Mexico City Mayor Miguel Angel Mancera with the body.

Police also found a message near the body hanging off a bridge on Monday.

The two killings appear to be related to a dispute between rival gangs operating out of the Reclusorio Oriente prison, and the DA’s office is investigating the homicides.

Mexico’s drug cartels frequently hanged the bodies of rivals, often accompanied by messages, off bridges during President Felipe Calderon’s 2006-2012 administration.

The practice was especially common in northern states like Nuevo Leon, Coahuila and Tamaulipas, but it has been rare in Mexico City.

Iztapalapa has been considered one of the most dangerous areas in Mexico City for years.

Government Undersecretary for Law Enforcement and Citizens Participation Arturo Escobar acknowledged in an interview published on Wednesdy by the daily El Universal that Iztapalapa, Gustavo A. Madero and Cuauhtemoc were the Mexico City boroughs that the federal government was most concerned about.

Mexico City officials say that drug cartels do not operate in the capital, where retail drug sales are dominated by small gangs.
