The media-created staph scare

The media has done it again! They've created fear in the American public, at least for the dumb people. Two people have died as a result of staph infections, and all of a sudden it's a huge problem. Two. Did you know that an average of 14,000 people die each year in the United States from falling down?

The New Liberal Times:

The bacterial infection surfacing in schools and other settings around the country is called methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, or MRSA. It is primarily a skin infection, often resembling a pimple, boil or spider bite at its onset. But it quickly worsens into an abscess or pus-filled blister or sore and can become serious if it enters the bloodstream.
