My friend/coworker just told me he had a mrsa sore. he kept it covered and was in contact with his dr.how susceptible am i to getting mrsacolonization?

MRSA: MRSA (methicilli Resistant Staph) is very common in the community now. If you are living or working with someone, it is possible to come into contact with the bacteria, as it is a micro organism. This bacteria tends to colonize the mucosal membranes (such as the nostrils) and the dark 'crevices' in your body, such as armpits and the groin. There is no need for concern unless symptoms appear.
