Teikyo University Hospital said Friday that 27 patients since last year have died out of 46 infected with antibiotic-resistant bacterium called Acinetobacter, including nine whose deaths are possibly attributable to the superbug which the hospital did not report until Thursday. The first death occurred last October, the Tokyo-based hospital said. The hospital launched an in-house investigation panel in July this year but did not make an announcement.
