And boy was it eye opening! ABC found all sorts of bacteria, including the one we are most concerned about here at MRSA Notes all over the gym. Guess where the worst place was? The shower floor. Wear those shower shoes, without fail! Also in the gym find lots of different bacteria in areas used by a lot of people in rapid succession and the machines where you are seated when using them. Most of these infectious bacteria are transmitted by contact, so wash frequently when working out in a gym, and it wouldn’t hurt a bit to be super careful to not touch your eyes and mouth until you are out of the gym altogether!
