The article means "locating" in the sense of "where should it be placed", not "finding"—perhaps you knew that and were just riffing off the other meaning, since I had the same misunderstanding based off of the title.



Yes, I realized that (and I hoped by saying “hospitals today” it would be clear that I had read the article).

But I still wondered if my (and your) surmised interpretation would hold true. I think it is well understood (certainly is within the medical community) that hospitals are a dangerous place to be, though clearly if you’re seriously ill it’s worth the risk. But do hospitals pose a risk to their neighbours?


Apologies—I couldn't tell, and I had that exact misunderstanding. That is an interesting question, though.
