WHAT KIND OF DISEASE IS MRSA (METHICILLIN RESISTANT STAPHYLOCOCCUS)?

MRSA, often referred to in the press as a „superbug“, is a bacterium responsible for difficult-to-treat infections in humans. It is major parallel of gold staphylococcus, which also extends to the healthy population as well as hospitalized patients. However, in hospitals, patients are at greater risk for infection than the general public because of open wounds, invasive devices, and weakened immune systems.
