MRSA in Berks County, PA School

October 2nd, 2006 · No Comments

Here is another article about a “non outbreak” of MRSA in the same county of Pennsylvania:

The superintendent of the Boyertown School District says two high school students have been diagnosed with MRSA. The infection is common in hospitals and also in young adults and athletes. The district sent out a letter to parents urging students to wash their hands, cover wounds and avoid sharing personal items. School nurses are also checking for signs of the infection.

At least the school system realizes it is a problem, if not an outbreak. Get well soon, students!
