MRSA epidemic sweeping the nation?

Well there is a staph infection going around the high schools in the area for the last couple of months, lately getting bad. A teen from a nearby high school just died from MRSA. They had to close other schools to disinfect for a day. And in my school everyone is carrying around some hand sanitizer, even though i doubt it prevents the infection. Any ways a friend told me that this is happening all over the nation. Is this true?
