First, MRSA is not caused from a virus, the flu is caused by a virus. MRSA is not the “flesh eating” bacteria. MRSA stands for Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus. It is a bacteria infection. People who do not have compromised immune systems also can “catch” MRSA. There is also VRSA (Vancomycin-resistant) and ORSA (Oxycillin-resistant).
I was answering a question as to why a doctor would give a patient meds for bateria when they have a virus. This virus does open some people up to bacterial infections due to weakened immune systems. The information you are giving does not match the information given by doctors of flu victims.
My friend who is 99 had VRSA two years ago. Thankfully she made it, after 4 months of treatment.
It is separate and aside from the H1N1.
