Why isn't copper used for surfaces in hospitals?

This thread seems to have as its basis that copper has some magic germicidal properties, and the merest touch of copper will instantly sterilize an object. It doesn't work like that.

Yes, microbes don't do well on copper surfaces, and after hours they may even die.
