Homosexuals will forever be the ones to introduce and or accelerate the rate of infectious diseases into the human population. Not to defend homosexual promiscuity...but the article says this sort of infection was a problem for a long time in nuring home environments before it ever showed up among gays.
Somehow I doubt the nursing home residents were spreading it by homosexual behavior.

Probably the gay men that are getting this are immune compromised. The article states "It seems to be able to attack normal skin in healthy people."
Scarey.

Homosexual activity leads to disease and death, while monogamous heterosexual activity leads to life. Forget God, NATURE abhors homosexuality. Nature and God abhor all forms of immoral sexual behavior.
Adultery, whoremongering, incest, bestiality, necrophilia etc. etc. Not just homosexuality.

There seem to be intermittant staffing problems most places these days. It's just a sign of the times. ;)

TrinoasitolI like better Trinotuchatol.
I'm so glad I have my own private bathroom in my office, since I hate to touch knobs and faucets in public toilets. I have reduced significantly the amount of colds I get since I decided to keep to a minimum the use of public toilets.

Agricillin, Agrimycin, plus all the apparatus needed to set it up. In case my dog gets cholera or something...
But please, don't wander in there all strung out and ask "Hey, dude, got some of that goracillin stuff?"

And being a MWM I can vouch for the fact that I'm particularly happy about that. LMRO

Doctors treating it caution that it could also be contracted at health clubs, steam rooms and other warm, moist environments. Sounds like we should blame global warming for this.

I realize it said that "It seems" to attack skin of healthy people, but then why is it only "gay" healthy people (with the exception of the one woman that is mentioned.

The trouble is that this is the kind of thing that could attack any one of us, not just people behaving in a risky way. How willing are you to eat in an LA restaurant now? How do you know who is preparing your food? I'm about to go to my gym. I'll be taking my anti-bacterial gel and I always wear thongs in the shower -- that's just common sense. But, unless you stay at home, you have no way of knowing how you might come in contact with the staph.
I would like to see public health authorities proclaim that anybody with staph is prohibited from having jobs that interface with the public, including food preparation. The gay lobby would scream, but if they said "anybody," not just "gay people," they would be covered. Plus, that only makes sense. I don't want a heterosexual person with staph preparing my food either.

Well, for women.
Only useful for a guy if it's his own.
