What kind of products do you use to prevent staph infection?
I use PuraCleenRx Xtreme Cleen Concentrate for my floors/walls and PuraCleenRx Ready-to-use Disinfectant for my counter tops, bathrooms, kitchens, furniture, cloth surfaces, hardsurfaces and any place I can wipe or spray as a mist. These products are hospital grade with kill rates of 1 minute and they are used in hospitals and schools. www.puracleenrx.com/staph They are also used nation wide in the Stamp Out Staph campaign www.stampoutstaph.com I also use the DermaTechrx Body Wash specifically formulated for MRSA. I used to get staph very often, and now I can control it with these products. The body wash also helps to heal the staph outbreaks before they even get too bad.
Can MRSA be hereditary if grandfather and father both show symptoms of MRSA?
MRSA is NOT hereditary. It is a severe bacterial infection that is easily transmittable and requires extensive antibiotics to treat. You need to see your doctor right away. Being hereditary, is something able to be passed down genetically from one generation to another. I am not sure I understand the question. MRSA can pass on genetic factors and a lot quicker than we can. We can only possibly inherit the propensity or a greater abilty to fight off any infection. One person in the very same situation as another, may be genetically better armed to fight a MRSA infection, and thus have a greater chance to survive. So the answer is probably: Yes. Answer From my understanding MRSA is not hereditary. MRSA stands for methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus. It causes an infection that is resistant to several common antibiotics. Because hospital and community strains of MRSA generally occur in different settings, the risk factors for the two strains differ. Risk factors for hospital-acquired (HA) MRSA include: * A current or recent hospitalization. MRSA remains a concern in hospitals, where it can attack those most vulnerable - older adults and people with weakened immune systems, burns, surgical wounds or serious underlying health problems. A 2007 report from the Association for Professionals in Infection Control and Epidemiology estimates that 1.2 million hospital patients are infected with MRSA each year in the United States. They also estimate another 423,000 are colonized with it. * Residing in a long-term care facility. MRSA is far more prevalent in these facilities than it is in hospitals. Carriers of MRSA have the ability to spread it, even if they're not sick themselves. * Invasive devices.People who are on dialysis, are catheterized, or have feeding tubes or other invasive devices are at higher risk. * Recent antibiotic use. Treatment with fluoroquinolones (ciprofloxacin, ofloxacin or levofloxacin) or cephalosporin antibiotics can increase the risk of HA-MRSA. These are the main risk factors for community-acquired (CA) MRSA: * Young age. CA-MRSA can be particularly dangerous in children. Often entering the body through a cut or scrape, MRSA can quickly cause a wide spread infection. Children may be susceptible because their immune systems aren't fully developed or they don't yet have antibodies to common germs. Children and young adults are also much more likely to develop dangerous forms of pneumonia than older people are. * Participating in contact sports. CA-MRSA has crept into both amateur and professional sports teams. The bacteria spread easily through cuts and abrasions and skin-to-skin contact. * Sharing towels or athletic equipment. Although few outbreaks have been reported in public gyms, CA-MRSA has spread among athletes sharing razors, towels, uniforms or equipment. * Having a weakened immune system. People with weakened immune systems, including those living with HIV/AIDS, are more likely to have severe CA-MRSA infections. * Living in crowded or unsanitary conditions.Outbreaks of CA-MRSA have occurred in military training camps and in American and European prisons. * Association with health care workers. People who are in close contact with health care workers are at increased risk of serious staph infections. It is a staph infection that is very contagious.

Can a human get staph infection from a dog?
Both human-to-animal and animal-to-human transmission of Staph (MRSA) are known to be possible. Although this use to be rare, with the constant mutation of drug resistant Staph it has become more commonplace. http://www.gjsentinel.com/featr/content/shared/living/pets/qa/qa111907.html These infections are not just limited to dog-to-human/human-to-dog but also a wide range of other animals including horses, pigs, cattle, sheep, cats, and rabbits as well. Good hygiene practices will lessen the your chances of a Staph infection but the bacteria is ever present in our environment and possibly the most common disease-causing bacteria in humans. http://www.cdc.gov/ncidod/hip/Aresist/mrsafaq.htm http://www.goaskalice.columbia.edu/2109.html
