Only those with compromised Immune structure?
LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So, explain Stella Beer, who was never sick a day in her life.
Quite and very literally. Never had a cold, a fever, nothing.
She then had the temerity to live 5 more years after beating MRSA.
Believe me. She was not compromised health.
What actually happened is when she shattered her hip, they used a bunch of pins to put it all back together.
One of the pins was compromised and caused MRSA to attach to her bone.
The company manufacturing the pins actually had a recall on their product and a class action ensued, which Stella declined for reasons I won’t go into and some Freepers know why.
She beat this thing and it damned near killed her but, we traveled all over the place even with the pic lines.
Nice anecdote, I’m glad she pulled through.
Here’s a broader perspective: http://bacteria.emedtv.com/mrsa/is-mrsa-contagious.html
