it started from hospitals and animals MRSA/Multidrug Resistant Staphylococcus aureus was discovered in 1961 in the UK. It is now found worldwide. it is thought that Mrs elenor Chorley contracted it
MRSA is a superbug that originated in hospitals. This is because hospitals use large amounts of antibiotics to treat ill patitents. Due to the overuse of antibiotics in hospitals, there has been a development of antibiotic strains of bacteria. They spread easily through hospitals from Nurses/Doctors passing from patient to patient. By having high standards of hygiene (e.g, sterilised equipment, hand washing) they can eliminate this superbug!
misuse of antibiotics... mrsa stands for methicillin resistant staphylococcus aureus... staph aureus is what is known as a staph infection... normal skin bacteria. Methicillin being the most powerful antibiotic against staph aureus and mrsa is just a strain that is resistant to methicillin. If an antibiotic kills 99.9% of bacteria it basically chooses that 0.1% to live... and that 0.1% would be whats called "resistant". few things kill ALL of anything. If Cyanide was used on millions of humans there "might" just might be a few that survived it, and if allowed to breed you have thus just created cyanide resistant homosapiens or CRHS. ^^ hope this helps you understand.
Many believe MRSA started by doctors liberal use of antibiotics for non-bacterial infections which caused the bacteria to become resistant to many antibiotics.

yes it does!
MRSA is a form of staph. Staph is bacterial
Can vinegar be used to treat a low grade form of mersa?
If you have any form of contagious and/or infectious disease, you cannot donate blood until you have absolutely no trace of the disease in your system.
Septic (sepsis) MRSA means that the MRSA bacteria has entered into the blood.
MRSA colonized resident means that the person is a carrier of the MRSA bacteria.
MRSA stands for methicilin-resistant staph aureus. MRSA is a type of staph, and a MRSA infection is a kind of staph infection.
does MRSA cause bacteria
No. MRSA is resistant to Amoxicillin.
MRSA can be in saliva.
MRSA is still very rare and will not be in the air. Some studies do talk of the 'MRSA' cloud that can be around an MRSA sufferer, who is ill enough that they do not move very much. An MRSA carrier who may not be ill from the bacteria but has symptoms of respitory infection that lead them to sneeze and cough can project the the MRSA bacteria all around them.
I guess you "could" get MRSA from your cheating spouse, although MRSA is not commonly spread sexually.
