Deblyn Posted October 23, 2007 Share Posted October 23, 2007 I talked with a friend yesterday and one of her daughters friends has scarlet fever. When they took her to the Dr. they said this was the 10th case. I also just found out that someone from our church has the "super bug". He was treated for the last 5 days. They think he got it at the gym. Link to comment
Becca_Anne Posted October 23, 2007 Share Posted October 23, 2007 That Multiple Drug Resistant Staph is nasty stuff. It's becoming very common in gyms and athletes. So if you use shared gym equiptment be sure to have a towel to put wherever you sit, and wash your hands very thoroughly after using the equiptment. Really you can't be too careful these days!

mommato3boys Posted October 23, 2007 Share Posted October 23, 2007 I just cringe when I think of the germs in the football locker room at the high school where my young son attends school and is on the football team. Link to comment
