Bacterium entered Prince George’s County Hospital Center through its water system, according to an article on the WTOP website.
Water tests found the Pseudomonas bacterium in four sinks in the neonatal intensive care unit, and two more sinks in another area of the Cheverly, Md., hospital, officials said at a news conference.
Two weeks later, officials said the hospital’s water is safe to drink.
Special water treatment and filtering that was already underway in two parts of the hospital, was expanded to the entire hospital.
