Protect Your Active Kids from MRSA

With fall sports in full swing, equipment cleanliness and item-sharing on and off the field may get overlooked between carpools, homework and bedtime.  But, skin infections like MRSA, a potentially life threatening antibiotic resistant Staph infection, are the cause of 56 percent of all infectious disease outbreaks in competitive sports in the U.S.

 


As a parent, it’s important to do our part to help prevent the spread of MRSA.  You can begin by getting involved in the Equip them Well program through three simple steps – collect, disinfect, donate.

Watch this video to learn more about how to get involved in the Equip Them Well program to help prevent the spread of MRSA.


***Participating bloggers who post the video and report by Wednesday, November 3 will be entered to win one of ten $25 gift cards thanks to the One2One Network!
