THANK YOU for posting this. I noticed MRSA was called a virus during the show (!) as well as several times on this message board. Antibiotics DO NOT kill viruses; therefore, a virus could not be methicillin resistant!
My husband is still recovering from methicillin and vancomycin resistant Strep - 'flesh eating bacteria" - acquired in the hospital over a year ago. After several surgeries, a 2-week coma, physical rehab, weeks of learning to walk again, and thousands of dollars of medical bills, by the grace of God my husband is still here!
It was surprising that Strep was just glossed over during the show. One guest - if I heard correctly - stated that Staph turned into Strep. WRONG! Two different bugs!! They can occur concurrently, but one does not turn into the other.
