Do persons with server runny nose from allergies are most likey to be carriers of MRSA?

Answer 1

No. Everyone who works in a hospital or other medical facility is taught proper hand washing technique. Since American litigation procedures are spreading world wide, proper hand washing techniques are being taught to food processing workers. MRSA is a bacterial disease normally spread when a health care worker takes care of one patient and does not properly wash his or her hands before seeing the next patient. As a result, the MRSA bacteria travels from patient to patient. Allergies have nothing to do with it.

Today restaurant workers and food processing workers are being checked on to make sure they wash their hands, especially after coming to work and using a toilet. It is far less expensive to have an employee spend a minute hand washing than to face a lawsuit for millions.

Proper hand washing involves interlocking fingers not just rubbing the palms of your hands together.
