Getting something left in you is less likely than you winning the lottery I think. The flesh eating virus you speak of would be the flesh eating bacteria I think, which is also highly unlikely to be gotten in a surgical setting. The reason that hospitals seem to push people out so fast nowadays is because there aer large amounts of bacteria in the hospital, and the longer a person is in thre, the more likely they are to pick up an infection. The problem with bacteria in a hospital is it's likely from another infected patient who is being treated with antibiotics, and that bacteria may now be resistant to antibiotics, making it harder to treat. There are a few rare types of bacteria (more and more showing up every day baecause of people going to their docs witha cold of the flu and demanding antibiotics) that are almost totally resistant, and these are more common in a hospital, and can kill you. However, your chances are still pretty rare.
