If you spend much time in hospitals, you're heard of MRSA, a drug resistant, life-threatening bacteria that is commonly found in hospitals. When a patient is infected by this, everyone who enters the room must wear gown, gloves, and mask.

Now it seems that an old Anglo Saxon remedy may hold the key to eliminating MRSA.

Hopefully this may do the trick - a very deadly bacteria!! (Wonder if blacks will start protesting that it's racist?!)

Jerry: Thanks for the report. I contracted MRSA during a hospital stay last year. The first day I was clear of it. By the 3rd day, I was isolated and the entire staff wore hospital gowns and rubber gloves when coming into my room. Scary stuff. Thanks again

My wife was in for a couple of weeks a little over two years ago, and when I arrived for a visit one day, they said that she had contracted MRSA, and everyone had to put on the gown, etc. I was a bit concerned because I knew what it was. They said it's just one of those things that happens in a hospital.

So what was the result in your case? Do you still have it?

A little of that, and "Burn the witch!"

I still have it. Never did have any symptoms. Lately I was subscribed a nasal spray ....Mupirocin 2%, saline 0.6...4x daily. It was formulated in a local CVS Pharmacy. Insurance wouldn't cover it..about $35. Talk to your primary doctor.
