gay men and people with HIV aren’t the only groups affected by community-acquired MRSA.

Gay men and people with HIV aren’t the only groups affected by community-acquired MRSA. The media have gone nuts on this. Lifelube helps expose the hysteria and AIDSmap puts it in perspective.

The media have not reported on the fact that straight participants in sports are a large community for transmission of the bacteria. If you contract the bacteria it is from skin to skin contact and in the vast majority of cases, simple washing with soapy water is enough to deal with it.

For the "straight goods" check out LifeLube and AIDSmap.

This is just another example of homophobia in the mainstream media.
