よって交差感染の最も危険な場所の一つになっている。On the other hand, with the development of new drugs (such as antibiotics and immunosuppressants) and rapid advances in medical technology, it has become possible to cure patients with severe illness, while administering immunosuppressants. The immune function is reduced by a large operation or the like, and an infectious disease is easily caused by bacteria or virus, and the in-hospital infection tends to increase. It is also said that more than 80% of the dust and bacteria latent in hospitals and other medical facilities have fallen and adhered to the floor surface. This makes the bed a hotbed of various bacteria, making it one of the most dangerous places for cross-infection due to the traffic of certain people.
