| All Staph spp. are gpc. |

| She said that Staph Aureus is gram positive. A different strain of Staph is gram negative. |

| She says Staph epi is a gram negative cocci. It's not. Staph epi is also a gpc. She should go back to school. |

| Not everyone experiences recurring infection; it depends on various factors, such your environment, your prevention & control practices and whether you are a natural carrier. Usually people who get repeated infections are colonized(carry the bacteria without any harm, usually in the nares and groin), so I would suggest seeking medical attention to see if this is your case, and maybe get decolonized. |

| I've had MRSA twice between June and July of this year. I believe I aquired it via a spider bite, while working outside my home.I am extremly worried about reinfection, as I care for my toddler aged daughter daily, and attend graduate school a few nights per week. I've had the bacteria induced infection twice on my crotch, of all places. The pain was extreme, as one can imagine. My question is, does everyone effected with this illness have repeat occurances over their life span? |

| Hospitals should have many windows and open them regularly to prevent being incubators for deadly diseases. |

| Well presented and informative, I hope doctors and nurses in UK watch this and understand this is not a simple problem. As doctors & nurses we are now challenged to manage simple infection which kills patients in 12-24 hours. Simple mistake when performing practical procedure can result in introducing infection resulting in systemic infection. I hope you publish another video to educate people on what they should watch for when they are in hospitals and clinics. |

| For MRSA- Pop and drain. Take lots of vitamic C (try kiwis). Get ALLimed or Alliultra, collidial silver, and oil of wild oregano capsuls to take orally. Wash with vinegar, manuka soap, tea tree shampoo. And rinse your mouth with listerine. I want to help others. I've been fighting it for 8 months and the 7 different antibiotics I've been on are nothing compared to oregano oil and ALLICIN (garlic extract). Your doctors are ignorant! Mine laughed at me when I told him about oregano. But IT WORKS! |

| I'm on but almost done with Doxycycline for my MRSA, FYI, and it REALLY works. Anyone with MRSA should get with their doctor and discuss it with each other. Ask about being prescribed it! |

| Unless someone finds a cure, it'll never go away. It'll be in your body for the rest of your life, and mine. I just found out that I have MRSA for sure but it is being kept under control. I had this crap a couple years ago and it lasted 7 months until I got the right meds to keep it under control. And I got it again but I went and got meds MUCH earlier. If you need any help or advice or questions, please feel free to message me. |
