health-care facilities, (presumably) including hospital nurseries,[24]were infected or colonized with
MRSA.[25]Children are more susceptible to
MRSA because they are more likely to exhibit minor scrapes, cuts, bruises, and insect bites than adults. Children (and adults, as well) who come in contact with day-care centers, playgrounds, locker rooms, camps, dormitories, classrooms and other school settings, and gyms and workout facilities are at higher risk of getting MRSA .
