    Also, I presume they went all the way down to the Caribbean to ensure that the water the baby was born into was close to human temperature? From personal experience, I got infected by an antibiotic resistant strain of staph (IIRC) in Florida exactly because the water temperature allows such microorganisms to survive without a human host. Supposedly the sea water in Miami sustains a near permanent presence of bacteria that normally should only infect by direct contact between humans.
