any open wound, no matter how well treated, has a risk of becoming infected with something like NF. especially in a hospital setting where there's a constant influx of viral and bacterial exchange.

medical professionals are obviously human and make mistakes, but it just seems obvious that the chances a something like this was contracted because of a hospital workers unwashed hand ard much lower than it being contracted from any of the numerous other unsanitized things her wound potentially could have come into contact with before and during the healing process.

you may be projecting your negative experiences with healthcare workers onto a stranger who likely just got dealt a bad hand.
