I was never sick, never had problems, just like you nottellin1. I had surgery in 2005 and ended up with a MRSA infection. I have had two surgeries as a result of that initial infection. It came from the hospital. NEVER say never. The only one who can get a MRSA infection is GOD!

'' ... hearing about children in trouble with authoritys is common, hearing about authoritys in trouble with children is rare, though statistics show that children are far more likely to be victimized than are authoritys ... in fact, children are so likely to be victimized that, were attention to be attributed to each instance, there would be no collection of authoritys on earth capable of punishing even a small percentage of the perpetratots ...

Scary, but I have to agree with getitfree. Personally, I rarely think about germs, pretty mush only wash my hands in the shower, eat food after it falls on the floor, etc. Interestingly, I also rarely get sick. I think I had the sniffles for a day or 2 in 2006, nothing yet in 2007. So go ahead and use that ridiculous hand sanitizer, you''ll be sick before I will. Oh yeah, and make to use those lovely wipes provided by your supermarket to wipe off your cart handle. Absolutely ridiculous. Except for people whose immune systems are already compromised.

If you want more on MRSA and athletic environment go to www.sportsozone.com and listen to the video. It goes right into the NFL locker room and what happened to a college football player with MRSA

An aberration.. a virtual reality show. A politic that has a point none other than a thought, and not a murder.

Terrorists are creatures that carry bugs and guns and bombs. But bugs and guns and bombs are dumb, and do something very specific and easily understood.

Keep the war objective, and take away the terrorists power. To where he''s just a raving lunatic..

Its not a terrorist, ya know. Its just an animal. Surviving. It means you no ill will, like a terrorist does. It knows no difference between you and something to eat. That should make it easier to defeat.

mnelsonix, Check Warwick University, MSRA was nailed there three years ago but upon asking for funding to take the research further, they were told to stop otherwise other funding would be pulled. You obviously work for Big Pharma or the FDA, don''t come on here playing politics with peoples lives, Cretin.

Is this the latest "scare" story for the American public? West Nile virus isn''t ringing the bell anymore
? Aids isn''t cured but it''s controlled? The latest child molester has been captured? No congressmen currently fooling-around?
