Story at-a-glance
Antibiotics were first discovered in 1929 but were not mass produced until the early 1940s; by 1977 the FDA determined antibiotic use in livestock for growth promotion could likely lead to antibiotic resistance
Nearly 130,000 people are infected, and 5,000 die, from infection with methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) each year, spread in both hospitals and the community
Athletes, students, military personnel and children in day care settings are at higher risk for infection related to close quarters and shared use of towels and other personal care items
You may reduce the spread of the infection by optimizing your vitamin D levels with sensible sun exposure, practicing good handwashing techniques and avoiding sharing personal care products such as razors, towels and bar soap
