A bacteria that is resistant to antibiotics has recently led to "dozens
of deaths" in large Israeli hospitals, a report on public television said.

"The bacteria has been in most of the large hospitals in the country,"
Dr Galia Rahav, a specialist in infectious diseases at Tel Aviv's Tel
Hashomer hospital said.

"Of 130 cases, there was a 30 percent death rate in our hospital," she
said, adding that there was nothing that could be done to fight the
bacteria which is from the klebsiella genus.

Klebsiella organisms can lead to a wide range of diseases, notably
pneumonia, urinary tract infections, septicemia and soft tissue infections.
