      It seems weird to me that private for-profit hospitals Are Not Good at seemingly BASIC applications of the germ theory of disease to their own buildings and people. Like... how can MRSA and CDiff lurk in hospitals for DECADES and not be eradicated? What am I missing?

      one anecdote I know: i applied for a job once at a computational-biology lab at Mt. Sinai Hospital. They let me sit in on their "deciding what projects to pursue this year" discussion section. I saw them give up on the project to track the spread of nosocomial infections

      because it would have involved too much negotiating with the hospital bureaucracy. like, they didn't fight for the project being approved and lose; they just were like "meh, this sounds like a lot of work."

      it's always weird to me in general when people who seem to have lots of social confidence are also weirdly quick to give in to social pressure...like, you'd think all that testosterone and self-esteem was for *winning at conflicts*, but noooo.

          anyhow i expect it's always politically hard to get an organization to investigate "to what degree are we failing at our core mission?" and "infecting patients" is an embarrassment of that scale

          it's also virtually impossible to get an organization to investigate whether it should exist at all, and "let's put everyone who is sick from everything all in the same place" may well prove to be a fundamentally bad idea

          At risk of being Annoying Guy In Your Mentions: in other species, that stuff is to credibly signal that you *could* win a dominance contest if you had to, which saves all parties from actually fighting (which could be fatal).

          you are correct and you're the USEFUL guy in my mentions, sorry I overlooked that, this explains a lot about the "macho but surprisingly willing to fold when challenged" behavior pattern

          A lot of time there's no fight to actually get your team into. It's "we'll look into this and get back to you in 6 months" with the people you need to lobby not taking meetings with you.

          yeah my impression from fights with (non-medical) bureaucracy is it's first and foremost a long and tedious search process to find the actual decision maker, and then finding a way to get them to engage.

          Competitions, not conflicts. If it's life or death you fight differently than if it's glory or failure. In a breach of the walls, everyone fights. Species which do mating fights rarely get near lethal and speed counts to get the "prize", so picking easy wins may be more adaptive.
