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?

Funny thing, overuse of antibacterial products is what caused the emergence of antibiotic resistant strains of bacteria. Thats evolution for ya.

As long as you guys keep that shit back east those of us out west won't care.

Scary stuff when you can get sick and die in 30 days.

My roommate had it at the beginning of the semester, started throwing up blood. It was pretty crazy. He's good now though.
