'' ... is it true that once upon a time, there was a multi trillion dollar conspiracy to rid the world of naked hungry blemished smelly boys by eliminating them from the market share and the trail share? and is it also true that the conspiracy is still alive, though shifted to rid the world of good women by eliminating them from the market share and the trail share? and is it true the conspiracy against the boys never nearly succeeded and also true that the conspiracy against the women, too, has never nearly succeeded? ...

A skin outbreak of MRSA often LOOKS like a spider bite, but is NOT--it simply looks like a spider bite. Doctors will prescribe an antibiotic and send the patient home and they will infect many other people (not realizing they have MRSA! Meanwhile, the MRSA returns. The medical field is in denial--ignorance, fear of lawsuits and just plan lazy. They neglect to take a culture--which can immediately diagnose MRSA. All this just recently happened to our son. MRSA returned after 8 months--then and only then did they take a culture and diagnose this terrible "super bug" correctly.

Fox news, CNN, and MSNBC are carring this story. They reiterate that 21 Virginia schools are closed because of the "Superbug." They confirm that Prisons, locker rooms, gyms, and poor urban neighborhoods are the vectors.

People who have come up with answers have been refused funding for development by.....Big Pharma.

That''''s why this particular illness has been excluded from coverage. It''''s a two pronged approach. Guess who''''s getting "pronged" ?

You guys are both right.

This story is misinformation/propaganda.

"==Some hospitals have also drastically cut infections by first isolating new patients until they are screened for MRSA.==
Pure BS!!!"

That is the procedure in Europe. But not here.
It is more expensive, and would hurt the insurance companies. It''s even more expensive to treat people once they''ve become sick from it. That''s why this particular illness has been excluded from coverage. It''s a two pronged approach. Guess who''s getting "pronged" ?

We should be asking some very serious questions of Big Pharma and their Anti-Biotics with regard to these infections. Far too many used and of questionable quality. This epidemic has been going on now for some considerable time, it is a disgrace. People who have come up with answers have been refused funding for development by.....Big Pharma.

Guess they didn''t proof the photo caption where is says 94-million instead of 94-thousand the actual number.

The hospital numbers are tip of the iceberg I bet, because I bet thousands of people die from these each in hospitals who were already very ill but to avoid being sued the hospitals say it was "the cancer" or whatever that caused a patient to die.
