Hospital ‘bugs?’

Editor, Index-Tribune:

    

  Since gym equipment carries viruses and bacteria, right up there with grocery carts and menus, it is of interest to note that the new senior wellness program is centered in Sonoma Valley Hospital, inhabiting the room specified by donors for the cardiac rehabilitation program.

  Perhaps those seniors using the equipment, possibly having lower immune systems, might become hospital patients, thus providing money to hire an RN to monitor the cardiac rehabilitation program.
