The Daily Mail is sounding the alarm. The dangerous carnivorous Staphylococcus aureus began to spread widely across the UK, infecting and corroding skin and flesh.
As the newspaper notes, the infection under the official name MRSA most likely came from the United States. These strains are distinguished by their increased resistance to antibiotics and the breadth of distribution. They can even be caught by simply taking a ride on a public bus and touching the handrail.
Experts warn that staphylococcus USA300 not only causes stubborn ulcers, ulcers and septic patches on the skin, but it is also extremely dangerous to the lungs and causes so-called necrotizing fasciitis.
The United States is called the possible homeland of the virus due to the fact that for the first time cases of infection with it were detected in the states. According to the doctor Ruth Messi from the Department of Biology and Biochemistry at the University of Bath in 2011, 1000 cases of positive tests for staphylococcus were detected in UK cities, of which 200 were with strains of a new dangerous species USA300.
-All these samples were taken not from patients in hospitals, but from ordinary people, so the strain does not spread through clinics, but most likely through public places, possibly through public transport.
According to Messi, USA300 infection is already a big problem in the United States, and it seems that the same has appeared in the British Isles. But they are ready to throw all possible means to fight it.
- In the process of studying viruses and bacteria, we learn more and more about staphylococcus, - concluded Ruth Messi, - However, new strains are constantly appearing, more and more dangerous for people, capable of killing a healthy person in a very short time.

Even The Graves Of Witches Can Be Deadly
Witches (real witches) can be very dangerous, especially if pissed off. But as folk legends tell, they can do a lot of harm even after death.
