so is everyone ready for MRSA?
story is getting some good media creep. if you've ever seen people who have it, it ain't pretty, and it might become an epidemic soon.

it's a staph infection that is resistant to antibiotics.

this fall, flesh eating bacteria will be the new black.

5. This story has been around for a while
But, it is an issue that needs to be addressed...

This story was in the Wall St. Journal about 18 months ago:
