MRSA’s Cousin, Called VRSA, Makes the Scene
If you follow the news at all, you’ve heard of MRSA, Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus Aureus. It’s the superbug infection that mostly attacks people with compromised immune systems — the elderly, anyone with an autoimmune disease, someone who has just had surgery or has any form of open wound. The majority of MRSA is contracted in hospitals. In the past year or so, others have acquired MRSA and other superbugs in the community.
As a reminder, what makes a superbug is the bacteria’s ability to overcome any medicine developed to kill it.
