Here's hoping it isn't staphylococcus-related... Freakin' natural selection... :-[

I'm not saying you have it, by the way. I'm just hoping that you don't. Or that I don't. Or just about everyone with whom I'm daily in contact.

Or is it that Seasonal Depression thing? My stepmom has it. Also, Jo gets really sick around late winter, she couldn't go to Anne Frank because of that...

The season had nothing to do with it guys... I was speaking metaphorically.

so today, someone on our squad got MRSA
(an EXTEMELY DEADLY SKIN EATING STAPH INFECTION that EATS YOUR SKIN)
and we weren't allowed into our lockers to get our stuff because it could be infected. IM SUPER MAD RIGHT NOW because my i-pod, makeup, hair straightner, athletic shoes, clothes and alot of other things are in my bag in my locker. if the infection is found on it there going to.. to... DESPOSE OF IT ALL!!! NOOOOOO!!! :'( but what sucks the most is that i came into direct contact with it this morning at practice...

Yeah, that MRSA is some nasty stuff. I'd take a shower or something right now just to be safe, if I were you. A really thorough one too. You can never be too careful, you know.

Edit: Oh, and probably tell somebody about that, assuming you already didn't. ;)

Post by: alex on November 02, 2007, 02:30:24 PM
don't worry, i did take a hot shower.

and the whole school knows, they sent out a letter :-* but what sux is i dunno WHO actually HAS IT. allllll 16 girls on our squad were there today, so i cam in direct contact with it.

They actually let everybody come in contact with someone they know to be infected with MRSA? That's...sick. :o
Title: Re:I could use some prayers...
Post by: DW on November 02, 2007, 04:00:46 PM
The good thing is, it's hard to get infected with it. Most of us carry it without getting it. It gets in through cuts and stuff...
Title: Re:I could use some prayers...
Post by: MagmarFire on November 02, 2007, 04:42:22 PM
But a so-so thing...would probably be that the death rate is only, like, 20%. Yeah, it is pretty high, but the thing is that it's not entirely accurate because not a whole lot of people have been infected with it yet to get a more accurate fatality rate.

Still, it's better safe than sorry, by all means! If you suspect that you came into contact with it, do everything that you deem necessary.
