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.
It’s
important that as parents and coaches we 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.
Please consider posting this video on your site so your readers can 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
