VAP should only be acquired dx on first encounter

VAP should only be Acquired Diagnosis on the first encounter. There have not so far been any validated re-acquisitions during the same stay.

We decided that VAP can actually happen in medicine if pt admitted from ICU. How would we deal with that for this check?
