i' m sorry i have not heard of it
MRSA is Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus which is usually found in people who have been on multiple antipiotic therapies, although there are other ways on contracting the infection. It is also transmitted by direct contact. Working in a nursing home, I see people with it all the time. It is treated with Vancomycin, and the patient is usually put on contact precautions.
