About 12 years ago I watched my next door neighbor suffer from a series of (or one recurrent?) MRSA infections. She barely made it. No, thanks, I’ll swab EVERYTHING.Staphylococcus among other germs live on our skin. Which is fine until you get it inside your body via injection. I’m not annal about most things but cleaning the injection site, the tops of vials and using new needles are a requirement 100% of the time.
