most MRSA varients are pretty strong because of the problem i mentioned...there is currently a deep clean of all UK hospitals being conducted because the problem is not so much a case of contact from person to person directly but transferal onto equipment and things such as door handles etc...which of course, someone else then uses and then it gets passed on
my mother recently had an operation for bowel cancer and aquired MRSA in hospital in her wound but it wasn't treated with antibiotics...it was treated with a silver dressing on the wound which cleared it up

Intresting. So, have you any idea, how the silver was so effective?

have a read...apparently honey is now also being used in dressings to fight MRSA without antibiotics
this is the main point from an activity level
Once in the cell the silver binds to and denatures proteins, including DNA and RNA, inhibiting cell replication. Silver in solution exists in three oxidation states: Ag+, Ag++ and Ag+++. Each of these is capable of forming inorganic and organic compounds and complexes, although the Ag++ and Ag+++ forms are unstable or insoluble in water [91]. Ionic silver is active against a wide range of pathogenic organisms but not all forms of silver exhibit antimicrobial activity. Colloidal preparations in which the silver is complexed with albumin or other proteins were once used as antimicrobials, but their use was abandoned as they were shown to be ineffective.
