(Methicillin resistant staphylococcus aureus is the medical term that has given us the initials MRSA. It is sometimes called staph, staph infection, golden staph, mercer staph infection, mrsa staff, mrsa staph infection. MRSA is not a virus. Viruses need to infect something to keep on living. Bacteria can exist on their own for months)
Another common hospital infection is C Difficile.

My husband got MRSA and we just had a baby, who is one month old, I’m brestfidind. We aso have a three years old ot and a dog. What are our risks?
I am colonized with MRSA. I first found out about it 8 or 9 years ago when a small boil on my finger wouldn’t go away. They tested it and it was positive for MRSA. It was treated and I have not had any problems since. I take as many precautions as possible including using Mupirocin Ointment in each nostril twice daily.
My question: Would it be safe for my future co workers if I were to get a resturant job, specifically as a pizza delivery driver ?
