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.
can MRSA be contracted by being in the same room with an infected person?
No. It is a bacteria. MRSA stands for Methacillin Resistant Staph Aureus.
No, as far as I know it can't be caught through the air, but it can be caught if you touch an object that has MRSA on it.
MRSA is not airborne.
MRSA is a fungal infection
MRSA is a bacterium, (methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus), not a virus. It does grow, but not like a virus.
Could be a MRSA virus.
MRSA (methicillin resistant staphylococcus aureus) is a bacterium, which is pronounced bak-teer-ee-uhm.One thing to keep in mind is to remember that bacteria is the plural of bacterium.
i have had mrsa now for 2 1/2 yrs, with hospitalizations and surgeries, I recently was diagnosed with hidragenitis and my doc told me mrsa was the infection and H.S. was the disease. So does one cause the other, good question, we believe it did, I have never had acne which they say is the leading cause of H.S. I have just had 2 major surgeries for my H.S. and mrsa was also positive. Any Questions, Stacycassel8@aol.com
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.
There are mat retailers that sell disinfecting products specifically for taking viruses and germs off of mats. One of these products, KenClean Plus, kills HIV virus, herpes virus, MRSA, and other bacteria.
I guess you "could" get MRSA from your cheating spouse, although MRSA is not commonly spread sexually.
