It would be kind of unusual to acquire that particular staph infection outside of a health care centre. Do you know how you got it?

Healthy people carry around staph bacteria - along with all other kinds of bacteria. It would be unlikely that you would pass it along to someone who is otherwise healthy.

That's one BAD bug, man. It used to be that it was only a hospital-acquired infection, but newer reports show it's moved out into the community.
