Scary Story II

It has a scary name and it's just plain scary. It's a "super bug" bacteria known as methicillin resistant staphylococcus aureus or MRSA for short. This bacteria kills 18,000 Americans each year. It's known for its resistance to antibiotics once it's in the body. But you can take the fright right out of it by following some simple guidelines. The bug is killed easily by soap and water. Wash your hands often! Don't share bath towels or personal hygiene items like razors. Disinfect phones and keyboards. As long as the bacteria stays outside your body, you're safe. So say "boo" to MRSA. These are the days my friend,
