I heard it on the knews, and I am most anxious and frightened;;
I'm sure many of you have also heard about MRSA on the news recently. I know it's Bacteria and not a virus. :\ I don't need a lecture.

I just need to know the different ways you can get it,
So I can steer clear of it and keep myself aware and avoid it.

Thanks so much!
Peace and love <3

Has anyone actually proved that they work to prevent a flu?
Am I the only one who thinks that this is just a big government scam to make money?

He is a highschool FB player. 2 other players were diagnosed with staph about the same time in August; and they had recently had recurrence of MRSA. The eye doctor is convinced that it is Stye, and not likely MRSA - despite the history.

I am a young adult who still gets strep throat a lot (sigh...both of my parent shad their tonsils removed but the doctors these days say that's not necessary). I used to live in France where this infection is very common and the doctors always gave me amoxocillin without doing a swab (and it got better). Now I live in India where this kind of thing is usually taken care of by the pharmacist. I asked for amoxocillin and they told me to take 500mg/3 times a day for 5 days. However, my doctors in France always prescribed a 10-day course. I don't want to stop too soon, even if the pharmacists say I can (fyi I am an adult and weigh about 55 kilos which is about 122 pounds so I am of the right size and age to take normal doses). Thanks!
