I cannot believe the number of people who bring their small children into the hospital to visit sick relatives. I am not saying that is how she got it, but I am not kidding you when I say they bring there babies in and let them crawl around on the floor and they drop their bottles and pick them up off the floor and shove them into their mouth. We take care of people with MRSA, Herpes, Hepatitis C and B. Vancomycin resistant Enterococcus and all kinds of super infections and these dumb a.ss.es bring there little kids in like its a social event. I am a nurse, and you would not believe what we drop on that floor. Stool, blood mucus, bowel movements, dirty linens, drainage from wounds. People come to the hospital healthy and get super infections before they leave.
Keep you little niece away from sick people and hospitals. Keep her safe at home. Wash with soap at water. Take her to the doctor and do not let them over prescribe meds for cold symptoms unless she has a proven bacterial infection. Wash her blankets and bed linens often. Dont let her play with sick kids. Feed her nutritious foods and milk. No junk food. Load her up with fruits and veggies. Give her plenty of water and good luck. Thanks for listening.

MRSA stands for methicillin resistant staphylococcus aureus, which means its a staph infection that normal antibiotics cannot kill, there are a few powerful antibiotics out there that can kill mrsa they have side effects , you need to see a doctor, the other thougtht is to keep her out of the hospital, hospitals are known to have mrsa also known as nosocomial infections
