"Darouiche said the two preps both work against a variety of germs but
the newer blue-tinted antiseptic works quicker and longer. It costs more
� on average $12 vs. $3 for the iodine prep � but Darouiche said the
expense is outweighed by the thousands saved by preventing costly
infections."

As someone who suffered through a post-op infection, I wish this stuff
had been in use when I had my operation.
