Gymgoers Urged to Beware of Rising Superbug Infections
Scientists warn of rising MRSA infections in community settings like gyms, with younger people increasingly affected. The US CDC and UK health authorities advise improved hygiene practices, such as not sharing towels or razors and covering cuts, to prevent spread. Although rates are still low compared to past decades, the trend of community-acquired MRSA is being closely monitored, raising concerns about potential shifts in infection patterns.
