MRSA Infection is the work of Dave Roberts. Dave is an independent researcher whose main research can be found at what some people call the staff infection web site . This web site you are visiting responds to the questions asked by visitors to MRSA Watch over the last five years. Dave is more widely read than most doctors on this subject. He is not medically qualified however and will tell you honestly if he doesn’t know or believes you need expert medical opinion.
MRSA Infection is sometimes called MRSA Virus or the MRSA Superbug, but it is actually a bacteria. Viruses need a host. Bacteria can survive on many surfaces for several weeks
The following terms are some times used to refer to MRSA and the links here will take you to more detail – mrsa staff, mersa, mursa, merced, mursas, mrca, mersha, mercsa, mersca, staph infection, mrsa virus, mersa infection, mersa bacteria, mersa virus, mrsa staph, myrsa, merca, staf infection, mercer infection, staff mrsa, mersa disease, , msra, or mrsa disease. Staph, staph aureus and staph infection are also used but there are many types of staphylococcus infection and varying degrees of drug resistance so MRSA strictly speaking refers to a drug resistant strain known as methicillin resistant staphylococcus aureus . Other common phrases include mrsa infection, infecion mrsa.
The most widely used MRSA drug is vancomycin. Infections are increasingly becoming resistant to it which is leading to what is known as VRSA
Dave Roberts also publishes several other information sites.C Difficile and MRSA in Pets. He also has a technology news site that focuses on the Apple iPad

We can’t really comment without knowing more. Is MRSA the only problem or one of several? What medication is she on? What city is she in?

Hi Dave,
Your site seems to be loaded with good information. I was wondering if you have heard of IV-7 Direct? IV-7 has been on the market since May 2010 and it is registered with the EPA as a product that kills and also has a 24 hour residual protection from MRSA and other Super Viruses.
Since you have much experience as a result of your research, I would appreciate your opinion regarding this product.
Thanks, Dave and keep up the good work. I had a family member die from a MRSA infection at the age of 43 with no prior medical issues. It only took one week for this to happen.
Best to you,
Doug Casady
