AFP: Beaches pose super-bug risk: study
Here it is folks, the real reason that Bolivia has no sea coast: the oceans and beaches of the Pacific northwest are laced with MRSA super-bug bacteria. I suspect that this story will get a lot of play in coming days. How is it that MRSA has gotten into the ocean from the land? Obviously from water on land that is contaminated. And since virtually nothing kills MRSA, ergo we have MRSA in the ocean. Left unsaid in this article and others early this morning is the concentration of bacteria. Primitive life originated in seawater. Maybe our doom will come from the same source?
We long for an ocean outlet, lost long ago in a war that started about guano. But if the seas prove to be dangerous because of MRSA, at least we can feel safe that no one will get it while at a Bolivian beach today.
