MRSA is a temendously dangerous antibiotic resistant Staph, mutated from the common "staph bacteria." MRSA can be passed by direct touch from another person's skin whether or not you have an open cut or sore. The nasal cavity is also a receptor of this germ.

MRSA is not like other staph bacteria in that many carriers exhibit no symptoms! Over 2 million people are MRSA carriers in the U.S. alone. MRSA has a HIGH mortality rate. Because MRSA is transmitted by direct skin contact or through the air we must use extreme caution. You need to know that every person and every surface could possibly be a "host" to MRSA. EXTREME steps are vital to reduce your risk of infection! More than regular hand washing should be implemented.
