It was not immediately clear how the officers came into contact with the bacteria.

Probably Trump’s and AG Barr’sfault and not due to illegals there with third world diseases.

Wetbacks are just infecting the Americans that Americans can't be bothered to infect.

If this situation wasn’t so serious it would be laughable how the msm twists themselves into a pretzel to avoid stating the obvious.

Politicians too.

[MrEdd]

Since it’s L.A. it should be determined how they were exposed before worrying about it.

[bgill]

Combine this with the occurrence of the mumps and measles and the uptick of TV and such.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

Defecating on the sidewalk is a civil right!

No estaba claro de inmediato cómo los oficiales entraron en contacto con la bacteria.

[Mom MD]

MRSA is in the community now and almost anyone can come in contact with it. I’ve probably been colonized with it for 30 years and feel fine. There are a lot bigger threats out there

[metmom]

Go into any hospital and you’ll come in contact with it.

My allergist told me that 1 in 4 people is walking around carrying it.

It’s everywhere.

[babygene]

This is not that big a deal. 1% of the population are MRSA carriers. That means virtually everyone that goes out in public is going to be exposed to it. Pushing a grocery cart at the supermarket unless you disinfect the thing will almost for sure get you exposed. Merely touching a surface touched by someone who is colonized will expose you. Sitting on a public bathroom seat, the same...

[cherry]

nurses face mrsa,cdiff,flu,etc etc everyday and nobody writes an article about us..

[dragnet2]

Hmmm...Are cops more susceptible to this cootie than others?

[CardCarryingMember.VastRightWC]

"MRSA"?

Make Republicans Safe Again?

[Celtic Conservative]

I caught it at my job as a corrections officer. I was in the hospital for 8 days.

[CARDINALRULES]

I am a Staph carrier. I am not worried about MSRA but VRSA. I have had cellulitis twice and only vancomycin worked to knock out the infection.

I am very careful and so far have only given myself staph infections.

[Sequoyah101]

They forgot to mention the most important symptom of MRSA. It is DEATH. A first responder friend says they are always wary of it because it is like carrying death in your pocket.

It is survivable. I know a man who survived it TWICE at an advanced age but that is not common.

[RouxStir]

OMG!!! Everyone should hide in their homes until the next ice age comes to kill back the bacteria.
