I’m a pediatric nurse, and I’ve seen a lot of kids come in with MRSA. Mostly cellulitis, or skin and soft tissue infections. 100% of those patients have had Community Acquired MRSA.

They swab the patients nose upon admittance for MRSA where I work.

Wouldn’t want to be in the medical field.

BTW, my Mom caught MRSA at a hospital. It contributed to her death. Nasty stuff. I doesn’t just affect your skin, either.
