Yes, MRSA (Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus) can lie dormant in the body without causing symptoms. This means that individuals can carry the bacteria on their skin or in their noses without being aware of it. Under certain conditions, such as a weakened immune system or skin breaks, the bacteria can become active and lead to infections. Regular hygiene practices can help reduce the risk of MRSA outbreaks.
