If you read one of my lasts post about the recall of about 69,000 pounds of cheese, you may be wondering what is Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). Click on one of the links to be taken to AOL health, which has all of the information you need about MRSA and more!

Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) are a type of staphylococcus or “staph” bacteria that are resistant to many antibiotics. Staph bacteria, like other kinds of bacteria, normally live on your skin and in your nose, usually without causing problems. MRSA is different from other types of staph because it cannot be treated with certain antibiotics such as methicillin.
