Where did staphyolococcus begin?
the shorter word or term for staphyolococcus is (mrsa) In the late fifties the antibiotic methicillin was introduced to combat the penicillin resistant strains of the bacteria Staphylococcus aureus. Within a couple of years methicilin resistant strains had emerged just about everywhere methicillin was being used. The methicillin resistant varieties were possibly a direct response to methicillin (my favoured theory) or a chance hybridisation with a distantly related bacteria that already contained the methicillin resistant gene. Nobody knows for sure.
