A member asked:
Can i get mrsa if i am having sex with someone who has it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
YES: If someone has MRSA you want to wait until they are cured and culture negative, depending on where it is and the person's immune system, it can as you know , sometimes cause very serious problems and be hard to treat so no reason for you to get it also, your partners doc should have told your partner that !
