Table 1 Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) data. Four swabbing occasions allowed for a comparison between MRSA detected following environmental services (EVS) standard cleaning (SC) or cleaning with ultraviolet (UV) light use (SC + UV), and following HHP fogging. MRSA detected post SC or SC + UV was not detected following HHP fogging indicating a 100% reduction of MRSA
