YES we all do there are many types of it and all are infetcious.some are on skin some live up to 48hrs on in adamant objects like soap,towels.doorknobs ect. but we all have one that is inside our noses and it lives there forever,and there are new forms or it growing all the time and are getting much stronger than the antibiotics we treat them with,so please always wash your hands,cover your sneezes,and take care not to pick at any bumps on your skin,allot of the strains need a break in the skin to get in,and some new ones don't.I do speak from personal exp.
