"Heart infection linked to Staph bacteria"

"An international study suggests a growing number of cases of infective endocarditis -- a potentially deadly infection of the heart valves -- stem from healthcare settings, and the most common cause is a strain of bacteria growing increasingly resistant to medications used to treat the illness."

I thought this was definitely worth reading...Hugs, Teri

This was a very interesting article, Teri! And, scary as well. I'm glad you informed us.

Happy Grandmommy to Amanda, Alayna, Wyatt and Ezekiel
