If you are healthy and do not have lower immunities from an illness then you will probably not get MRSA. You need to be careful though because MRSA is bacterial infection and it can be transmitted from person to person specially if you have any open wounds/cuts. Any one coming into contact with a person with any infection should wash hands frequently to prevent the infection from spreading.

Generally, MRSA begins as small red "pimples" that quickly become painful abscesses. These abscesses must be drained and antibiotics administered in order to prevent the staph bacteria from moving from the skin to inside the body, where it can create potentially life-threatening infections of internal organs.
Take home message: If you think it might be MRSA: Get thee to a doctor ASAP.
