it's more likely to cause a staph infection by causing cracks in your hands(if you wash your hands) and it probably weakens your immune system if you drink it, causing staph to be capable of causing an infection, staphylococcus aureus occurs naturally on any part of your body, and shouldn't pose any risk unless your immune system is severely weakened(which is why it is common in hospitals, where almost everyone is ill in one way or another)
