S. aureus can lay dormant in the body for years undetected. Once symptoms begin to show, the host is contagious for another two weeks, and the overall illness lasts a few weeks. If untreated, though, the disease can be deadly

Staph is a common bacteria in the mouth - up to 80% of the population will have it. This doesn't mean that there is an infection, staph is commonly found on and in the body without causing an infection. If there is an infection (redness, swelling, pus) then it is certainly possible that staph is the bug.
Viral Meningitis isn't as severe as Bacterial meningitis. Bacterial meningitis left untreated can cause tissue damage on the brain, seizures, and death. MRSA is short for "methicillin resistant staph aeurous" or staph that is resistant to a strong antibiotic called methicillin. Once in your body MRSA will stay they, you can have outbreaks in the form of boils or it may lie dormant.

Brown recluse is worse than a staph infection. Staph infection is on most surfaces that you touch daily and your body can fight it off easier than the fast progressing bite.
Normal folks have staph germs all over their bodies, all the time. Bathing often keeps the germs off of you, somewhat. A substance on the skin that your body produces - gamma globulin - keep the staph germs under control so that your skin rarely becomes infected. Any body place that does not get bathed much, or any place that gets scratched are ideal locations for the staph bacteria to get started raising their families and cause infections. A doctor can prescribe ointments, tablets, or a shot that should get rid of the infection, if caught soon enough. She can also tell you if the infection is staph, or even a fungus infection like tynia.
Staph infection is spread like any other infection, by bacteria. It enters your body though cuts or your nose or mouth. Washing your hand is the key to prevent it.

Staphylococcus aureus is a bacterium that is usually found on the skin at any given time. Staph is harmless unless it is colonized. Colonization occurs when the bacteria enters the body and begins to replicate itself. Once colonization occurs, staph seemingly takes on a life of its own and begins feeding on the body. Staph infections then take on the role as a parasite; needing to feed on its host to stay alive. If left untreated, staph can grow exponentially. Staph colonies usually stay together unless the nutrients in its host are depleted. The dangerous aspect of staph, is when it colonizes other parts of the body. In these cases, staph can attach itself to major organs causing havoc in the host's body, possibly leading to death of its host.
