Its a real problem for my elderly mother to travel to a hospital for a flu shot. Is there any service that does this? She lives just west of Boston.

I habitually scratch and itch and have some scabs on my face, but the Doctor dignosed it as impetigo. Also he said I also have a MRSA infection and I also know what it looks like. I went to the CDC website and it looks more like an allegic reaction to something and the rash sounds like something that has been going around from school children, but it is not MRSA is there any way I can get a culture with out having to pay through the nose. I just think the the diagnosis is wrong and the medicne was over $200. what should I do?

At this rate, is there anything clean and safe to eat anymore? E. coli is much worse than salmonella, since it is found in "feces", while salmonella bacteria can be quickly killed at high temperature!

Is anyone else annoyed at how the media has made MRSA seem like some new superbug when in fact its been around for years? I am tired of people panicing thinking this is some new bug that is going to kill off everyone on Earth. MRSA has been around for a VERY long time I think it was a slow media day when they ran the story. In fact 90,000 ppl a yr contract MRSA odds are your already a carrier and wont know unless your tested.

Whats your opinion
