Study shows pig farms a source of MRSA

// 08 Nov 2007

Study shows animal agriculture as a source of Methicillin-resistant Staphyloccus aureus (MRSA). The deadly bacteria once thought only to occur in hospitals and has caused up to 19,000 deaths in 2005 in the US - nearly 2,000 more victims than HIV/AIDS killed that year.
