Question
Berta
In part:
"On today (Jan. 4), his final day as Chairman of the House Veteran Affairs Committee, Cong. Bob Filner kept his promise to area veterans and citizens by returning to St. Louis and the John Cochran VA Medical Center, to speak to patients and staff about ongoing patient care issues at the facility. U.S. Rep. Bob Filner of San Diego and U.S. Rep. Russ Carnahan of Missouri spoke to reporters at Carnahan’s St. Louis office before touring the facility.
Six months after Filner held hearings in St. Louis about equipment sterilization problems at Cochran’s dental clinic – he said there has been no word from the VA about holding anyone accountable for exposing more than 1,800 veterans to viruses and blood-borne illnesses due to improper sterilization techniques, no any official report on changes or improvements. About a handful tested positive for hepatitis, although it is uncertain whether it was a result of being treated at the clinic."
